Hi,

There's quite a lot of info to be had but it takes time. The first thing you should do is apply for a copy of his service records. They cost £30 and will list all the units he served with during WW2. There's a good chance he may not have been with the 4RWF when he re-enlisted unless you have absolute proof, either way I would still apply for a copy of his records. Once you have this info you can then start looking at the units war diaries that he served with, these give a day to day account amongst ofther info of what the unit was doing and where they were doing it.

Do you have a service number Benny? If not, a DOB and I will check try and get you his number, so you can apply for his service record.
