I was with John Hendrt on 37 Squadron we lived in the same tent, when we were based at Misurata and Kairouan. At the end of our tours, I was also a Wireless operator,air gunner.we both were posted back to Egypt, I last saw John at the transit camp in Tunis. I would love to hear from him or his family

I am trying to find out information of my Grandfather. I believe John R Henry was a good friend of his and my Grandmother. Their names are Kenneth Potter and Iola Williams. If you have any information I would be grateful.
