840141 Leading Aircraftman Purser (Percy) Bush

The information and pictures supplied below has been sent in by Arthur Bush about his father:

LAC Purser (known as Percy) Bush, service no. 840141.
who served in Sqdns. 901, 948, 982 and 966, having signed up on 11/10/38.

For a time, he was stationed at Shrewsbury Park, Shooters Hill, SE London, (ideal as he was a local lad from Plum stead). He also served in Wales and

abroad in Belgium, where he was wounded.

I have attached several pictures from that time which you may like to use on the website and I would be interested to hear from any comrades who may

have known him. Mr Bush Jnr can be contacted by email at: abush@lqgroup.org.uk

the nearby factory in Plumstead for dispatch use).

So if anyone recognises these pictures or can help Mr Bush please contact him or contact the secretary Peter Garwood
