Paul Bradley

From John Bradley:

My grandfather Flying Officer Paul Bradley.

He was a fighter pilot in WWII based out of Trenton air force base during the war.

He obtained his wings on November 21, 1942.

After the war he became a training officer and helped train NATO pilots and was based out of Gimli Mb. He had logged over 3000 hrs both in Harvard aircraft as well as a T33 Silver Star.

Sadly my grandpa went missing on January 28, 1955 over the mountains near Whistler B.C. on a training mission and has not been found to date.
