F/Sgt C G Miller

[Carsten]

F/Sgt C G Miller from No. 620 Squadron flew a gardening mission to Kattegat in November 1943, where he had a combat with a Ju 88 from IV./NJG 3. Is that the same Miller as F/O Cecil George Miller (AUS412451) from No. 582 Squadron who got a DFC in October 1944 ?

Hi Casten,

His service file for some reason is not listed in our Archives there is a reference to him involving a Lincoln after the war. His DFC is in Michael Maton’s book on DFC’s but it is listed as a General Citation.

Sorry mate I couldn’t find anything. Maybe someone might have better luck.

Cheers,

John.
