I just received the North Island Weekender, newspaper North Vancouver
Island, and it contains a story honouring a 82 year young WWII Veteran,
former RCAF pilot Ken Moore, recognized for helping sink two German
submarines within 22 minutes on June 7, 1944 in a B24 Liberator. He was
with 224 Coastal Command Squadron based in Cornwall on the English Channel.
Great story but too long to reproduce. He was discharged from the RCAF in
1945 and re-enlisted in 1946 serving for a total of 31 years including a
tour as CO of 407 Maritime Patrol Squadron at CFB Comox. He retired as a
Wing Commander in 1972.
