My Dad, Alexander John Collins, graduated from No 3 Wireless School in Winnipeg on 31st of July 1942. I have his graduation certificate and the photograph of the ceremony.
He joined the RNZAF in 1939 but was not released from his employers, NZ Railways, considered an essential industry, until 1941.
He then went into camp in Levin NZ and was sent to Canada from there. He flew with 192 Squadron.
