Gordon Hedley Hewitt DFC
RNZAF 626 Squadron
My father was a pilot of a Lancaster bomber during WW2. He served with 626 Squadron out of Lincolnshire. His name was Gordon Hedley Hewitt, DFC. It is sad for me to say, but he passed away in 2006. The plane he flew was nicknamed the Pony Express. He was a born in New Zealand and trained here and in Canada before joining the RNZAF in 1939. His number was NZ415225.
