Sgt. James "Ginger" Ware DFM.
Royal Air Force 99 Squadron
from:London
I recently came across this document, it tells an amazing story of bravery. My uncle, Jim Ware flew more than 51 sorties as a rear gunner in Wellington bombers and lived to tell the tale. I would be surprised if many airmen could beat this. Here is his recommendation for the Distinguished Flying Medal in 1941. He was shot down, lost a part of his right leg and still carried on.
