He received the medal (Predecessor of the Distinguished Flying Cross) following a flight to Germany, November, 1944, at the age of 21. His aeroplane was attacked and Ron succeeded in shooting down the Junkers plane involved before following the rest of the crew and parachuting from his own burning aircraft. He and a fellow Air Gunner were assisted by the Dutch Underground, taken to the nearest allied base and were given a lift by an American General flying his Dakota to London. Meanwhile, Ron had been reported Missing in Action to his family in Great Haseley (near Oxford), who were naturally over the moon on his safe return days later. He survived the war against extraordinary odds, suffering gunshot wounds and burns and earning Membership of The Caterpillar Club (for Parachutists) in the process, to live out the rest of his life peacefully in Oxfordshire. The medal comes with contemporary artefacts, to include a Caterpillar Club Badge & Certificate, an R.A.F. cloth badge and decal and supporting paperwork, including the King's letter of congratulations, R.A.F. letters to the family, telegram and postagram from Bomber Command, an R.A.F Service and Release Book, Transport Command from Brussels to the UK and photographs of Ronald, consigned by the family.
