Having discovered he survived a training plane crash within my native English county, thanks to a book documenting military aviation accidents in 20th century Shropshire, I have added details on his military service (Royal Norwegian Air Force, under RAF command) and also his decorations, sourced from a Norwegian website. I suspect my information is not entirely complete, as while I know he was a Sergeant at time of his training accident in 1943 he must have been ultimately commissioned as an officer because he won the Distinguished Flying Cross awarded by the UK government.
