Pearson, George Sholto Manning 197 Squadron RAF
#1

A new friend of mine is looking for information.

 

This is in regards to Pearson, George Sholto Manning, who was a pilot, 197 Squadron RAF. I have attached a PDF of the email, because if I merely copied it here, I would lose all the formatting. You will see what I mean when you open the file.

 

Thanks to anyone who can assist.

More on Mr Pearson, apparantly he was a student at Glasgow University prior to the war. Not much on the bio, but does say his father`s name was Rex Pearson.

From this and his military info, we know this about Mr Pearson so far..
