I wonder if anyone has a copy of the two volume Ian Tavender book listing all of the DFM awards and citations. I am researching a Warrant Officer George Albert Wood. He was the father of a friend and the information is a bit patchy. He was said to have been ground crew in North Africa who trained as a pilot in Rhodesia before joining 141 Squadron at Tangmere, Ford and Wittering. However he does not appear in the ORBs. He was said to have been in two combats with E/A but he does not appear in any of the Squadron combat reports. He was said to have been awarded a DFM which is why I was hoping that someone had a copy of Tavender's book, which apart from being hard to find costs £165! Any information gratefully received. Thanks - Mike
