SOLD UO59 An American in the Royal Canadian Air Force Group SOLD
This group consists of items from the estate of Dwayne Linton. Mr. Linton, an American citizen, was born September 29, 1917 in Marion, Illinois. In 1941 the U.S. Army Air Corps was not accepting new pilot applications. He joined the Royal Canadian Air Force and flew Spitfires as a Pilot Officer. After initial training in Saskatchewan he was assigned to Llandow, South Wales for training in Spitfires. In England he was assigned to 412 squadron at Digby, Lincolnshire and subsequently to 411 Squadron at Leedham, Norfolk. He flew 290 hours in Spitfires with over 71 hours of operational time. On July 19, 1942 he sank a German E-Boat and 4 days later shot down a JU-88 off the coast of Holland. On August 19, 1942, during the Allied raid on Dieppe, France he was shot down. He spent 33 months in Stalag Luft III. His Spitfire was named “Miss Herrin.” This group consists of #1 A RCAF tunic with beautiful embroidered RCAF wings, a “Goldfish Club” patch, #2 A second tunic with only “UNITED STATES” patches on each shoulder #3 A 19 ½ by 15 ½ inch framed certificate from King George appointing Linton to the rank of Pilot Officer in the RCAF #4 A 6 ¾ by 8 ¾ inch framed announcement sent to Mrs. Linton informing her that her husband was missing in action. #5 A 9 ¼ by 11 ¼ inch shadow box with three of Linton’s medals, a second set of embroidered wings, a Presidential Unit Citation ribbon, an enamel Canada emblem and a “Former P.O.W.

Magee, Jr’s Spitfire with an Oxford bomber and a typed copy of the poem “High Flight.” P.O. Magee wrote the famous poem “High Flight” in 1941. #9 A complete January 1993 issue of FLYING magazine. #10 Linton’s German P.OW dog tag. #11 Linton’s Royal Canadian Air force dog tag. #12 Four loose papers with the handwritten names, addresses and locations shot down of 101 POW’s.

It lists the death of Mr. Dwayne Linton. #14 A framed black & white photo of Linton sitting in the cockpit of the Spitfire “Miss Herrin.” (This photo appears to be a copy.)
There are other period and later paper items too numerous to list.
The logbook has many interesting entries. Linton had tea with H.M. the King, George VI, witnessed the death of Poet Magee, shot down the JU-88 and sank the E-Boat, hit a flock of seagulls, got hit by flak and lost his cowling, made an emergency landing when the engine quit, got hit by flak several times, etc, etc. Many names in the logbook have the additional note: R.I.P.
SOLD This group has a great potential for research. SOLD
NOTE: The sale of this Royal Canadian Air Force group has led to the publishing of the non-fiction book "Air Born" by John Wallace. The book is described as "an extraordinary World War 2 true story of two Spitfire pilots, separated by a tragic death - re-united by astounding chance."
