Her Service No. was: 230873, Rank : Second Subaltern (Second Lieutenant)
The Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS) was the women's branch of the
British Army during WW 2. The timetable is incorrect,she entered Service in 1945

Why there is no From To in the message?

[Godalmighty83]

just a minor little thing, in the crew section of th manual every sailor is named 'john wayne'

bit of irony considering he never actually served.

Could this be Bernards Alias?

Best be safe before he causes any problems.

Nearly a century after a bitter defeat by the United States, Mexico sent a military force to fight against the Axis powers alongside U.S. military forces in World War II. It was the first time that Mexico sent combat personnel abroad and the first time both nations battled a common threat. This unique unit was the Mexican air force, Fuerza Aerea Mexicana (FAM). Its pilots provided air support in the liberation of the Philippines and flew long-range sorties over Formosa, earning praise from Allied theater commander General Douglas MacArthur and decorations from the U.S., Mexican and Philippine governments.

We can only hope that the U.S. and the Allies will more publicly acknowledge Mexico's assistance during WW II. The Mexicans who shed their blood in the skies over the Philippines, as well as those who volunteered to fight for freedom under the Stars and Stripes deserve no less.

That's a great story, Kongo Otto. Being a longtime (45 years or so) model builder, I have some decals for WW2 Mexican Air Force planes, but I never knew the whole story. Thanks for that.

Two for the price of one. (Although Monty had a right to throw a fit )
