Teaming-up with Flying Officer G. Johnson, he went operational in the New Year with three nighttime low-level “Rhubarbs” and an offensive reconnaissance, the latter operation on 27 January entailing the strafing of enemy gun positions in the Singu area. This, too, the same month in which his aircraft nearly came to grief on a regular patrol on the 4th:‘Flying Officers Johnson and Grubb were flying from Tulihal to Baighachi, with Flight Sergeant Allan as a passenger. After 30 minutes, the port engine of X. 7895 (T) failed. Having fethered the propellor, they diverted to Agartala, but were unable to make R./T. contact, so they fired several red Verey signals before making a single-engined approach. Even so, a transport aircraft was below and ahead of them on finals and they touched down 50 yards behind it - Gordon Johnson applied the handbrake to stop and the starboard tyre burst and the port undercarriage collapsed.’Having emerged unscathed from X. 7895 (T), pilot and navigator returned to regular operational sorties throughout February-April 1945, in addition to a “Scramble” on 20 March, when Grubb’s aircraft failed to catch three “Bandits” over Meiktila but experienced memorably heavy and accurate A.A. fire. And as verified by an endorsement in his Flying Log Book, he had completed over 75 hours of operational flying by the time of V.J. Day. He returned to the U.K. for demobilisation in the rank of Flying Officer in November 1945.
