Seeking Relatives of WWII Flying Ace FLTLT Murray Adams

BATTLE OF BRITAIN ‘LACE’

The Air Force section at the Australian High Commission in London has been approached by historian and craftsman David Wilson, who has self-funded a project to honour 13 WWII flying aces.

One of these heroes is ex-RAAF Flight Lieutenant Murray Adams, who served with the RAF’s 80 and 250 Squadrons.

The Australian High Commission team is seeking assistance to help locate any relatives of FLTLT Adams. If you have any information or know someone who might, they would love to hear from you.

David plans to present these handcrafted memorabilia pieces in the coming weeks – most likely between Anzac Day and VE Day in early May. If any family members are found, they would be warmly welcomed to attend a small ceremony at the Australian High Commission in London, where FLTLT Adams’ accolades will be read out and the items handed over.

Please share this story or get in touch if you can help – comms@raafa.org.au
