My sympathy on your loss. My father Dr. H.W. Riley was also a member of Squadron 413 and I have recently written a book about his experiences (We Watch the Waves). I remember his mention in letters home of Gordon Bracken who won a DFC, one of the only ones for flying boats. I note with sadness the passing of the members of the squadron and thought the family might be interested in this old association. Susan Riley, Vancouver, B.C.
