Cover of the Day - RAF Contingent in British Guiana

[Alan Baker]

This cover has arrived today from Roger Barton, War Covers. It was posted in May 1944 in Port of Spain, Trinidad to Mr Jules Davis, AC2, RAF Contingent, BG.

So far, I have not been able to find this person in any records (including Caribbean Aircrew in WW2) or any details of the RAF Contingent in British Guiana. Any info very welcome

NB The right hand end was obviously cut off by the recipient, not my scan!

Morning Alan,

No luck I am afraid and I had a good search. You might like to see https://www.ab-ix.co.uk/pdfs/rfc_raf.pdf which states RAF Service Numbers 716000 - 716799 were Caribbean Barbados and not Br Guiana I also searched https://www.caribbeanaircrew-ww2.com and might be worth a contact and question?
