The Distinguished Flying Medal register for the Second World War with official recommendation details

Description: Close to 6,500 DFM's were awarded for the Second World War, but many non-immediate or periodic awards were gazetted without citation. Furthermore, many immediate citations were abstracted from the Recommendation, which was deposited in the Public Record Office, where searching was difficult. Tavender has transcribed and compiled alphabetically all these surviving Recommendations, together with remarks by Station and Base Commanders and Air Officers Commanding. Where none has been found, he has sought the press release and included it. Of the 6463 DFM's (and 56 bars) awarded to Non-Commissioned Officers and Airmen of the United Kingdom and Commonwealth, all but 164 are published with the full Recommendation or press release.
