We have found our father's service record and release book from the RAF. Unfortunately, we didn't ask him enough questions when he was alive. Henry Shelton enlisted in 1936 at Uxbridge and joined the No. 47 Squadron in Khartoum. He trained as an electrician. He returned to England in 1942 and was stationed with No. 460 Squadron at RAF Wymeswold on 10 Aug. 1943. On 9 Sept. 1943, he joined No. 622 Squadron and then moved to No. 9 Squadron on 19 Sept. 1943. On 10 Dec. 1943, he joined the 9009 Servicing Echelon 53 Base. On 9 Sept. 1944, he moved to RAF Bardney. On 2 Aug. 1945, he is listed as 100 P.D.C. Class A, RAF Bardney. He was released to the reserves on 2 Nov. 1945.
