Frank, the crew's first pilot - Part 1

Joe Watson was the second pilot to be assigned to this crew of 20-year-olds. Their first pilot was named Frank.

Letter from Keith to his mother dated June 9 1944.
'I’ve got a good system with Frank my skipper who is an F/O, every time he bounces the tail in a landing he has to buy me a whisky and he bounces the darn thing about every time & I just about go out through the roof of the turret.'
