London Gazette 20/1/1942 p.395
Distinguished Flying Cross.
Pilot Officer George Corbett BAYLEY (113343), Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, No. 7 Squadron. Flying Officer Arthur George MACLEOD (81062), Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, No. 7 Squadron. During the past month, Pilot Officer Bayley and Flying Officer MacLeod, as pilot and navigator respectively, have carried out several attacks on the enemy warships Gneisenau and Scharnhorst at Brest. Despite arduous conditions and fierce opposing fire from enemy defences, the flights have been successfully accomplished although on the last 3 occasions Pilot Officer Bayley's aircraft has been damaged by enemy action. Throughout these missions, which have entailed a high degree of navigational skill and expert knowledge, Flying Officer MacLeod has fulfilled his duties with conspicuous success. Pilot Officer Bayley and Flying Officer MacLeod have always displayed great courage, skill and determination throughout the many sorties in which they have taken part.
Pilot Officer George Corbett BAYLEY (113343) was killed on 29 July 1942. _________________ Ken |
