WhiteWings Posted 19 June , 2020 Share Posted 19 June , 2020 Hi All - I am trying to find out if #64 was at Izel-les-Hameau during June and July of 1918. My grandfather Whealy's squadron (#203) was there, as was #5, but my grandfather makes a mention of a Canadian pilot from #64 as though he was part of the community. Hope someone can help out with this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topgun1918 Posted 19 June , 2020 Share Posted 19 June , 2020 No 64 Squadron was based at Izel-lès-Hameau from 15 October 1917 to 23 October 1918. Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quemerford Posted 20 June , 2020 Share Posted 20 June , 2020 What exactly is #64? It's not something I've seen before in the context of 'RAF' (Royal Air Force I assume)? Or is this txt-speak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOVE23 Posted 20 June , 2020 Share Posted 20 June , 2020 No. 64 Squadron, I'd assume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topgun1918 Posted 21 June , 2020 Share Posted 21 June , 2020 Given the context, it's more likely to be 'Canadianism'. However, that's no excuse for the rampant sarcasm being shown. It takes no more energy to give a polite answer using the correct terminology, than it does to take a dig at the original poster. I sincerely hope that WhiteWings hasn't been deterred from posting further information. Anyway, Happy Father's Day, if applicable. Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quemerford Posted 21 June , 2020 Share Posted 21 June , 2020 Hardly rampant sarcasm. Just a request for clarity on my part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
