Frank 'Chota' Carey by Norman Franks

Frank Reginald Carey is a name well known to aviation historians. As an NCO pilot before the war finally erupted into action in May 1940, Carey had already been in combat and received the DFM. Commissioned just before ‘the balloon went up’ he was sent to France and fought doggedly for four days, shooting down more than a dozen German aircraft and winning the DFC and Bar. He then returned to England and the Battle of Britain, scoring 18 by mid-August 1940, all on Hurricanes, before being wounded. In 1941 he was given his own squadron, with which he sailed for the Middle East, and then  gradually making his way to Rangoon, Burma to fight the Japanese.
