	Hi, This is very interesting. My g uncle Joseph Kenneth Gordon (1928-1989 ) was in the RAF, and I am not sure if he would be too young for the dates you mention, but would you have a lookg for me please? He was born and lived in Middlesbrough for most of his life. It would be fantastic to get a photograph of him! Thank you very much for you help. Peter PS He was known to everyone as 'Kenny'.

	Not to worry; could you try Joseph Patrick Gordon (known as Joe). We know Joe (1908-1981) was definitley in the army, but there is a rumour he may have also been in the RAF. I doubt this but it would be if you could check if that is ok? Thanks Peter
