Hi Linzi,

If we are looking at the right person, this may be him:

MORE AWARDS

NEW ZEALAND AIRMEN

The Air Department has been advised from London of awards to 20 more members of the R.N.Z.A.F. The citations are not yet available. The awards are:

BAR TO DISTINGUISHED FLYING CROSS

Squadron Leader Warren E. Schrader, D.F.C., Mrs J Schrader, 10 Mount Street, Wellington (m.)

Acting Squadron Leader James R Cullen, D.F.C. Mr G R Cullen, Whangamata Road, Waihi (f).

The only other electoral roll record for him shows as:

The 1969 Electoral Roll for Grey Lynn, Auckland shows John Ronald Cullen residing at 83 Rose Road, and employed as a Cargo Worker.

I cannot find any other record for him, but will keep hunting!
