Remembering Gerald Anderson MBE DFC (24-ii-1898 23-viii-1984)

During World War I, he was accredited with eight aerial victories.

His MBE was awarded in the 1959 New Year Honours list. The citation reads : "Gerald Frank Anderson, DFC, Second Secretary, Her Majesty's Embassy, Washington."

Oh, I almost forgot. He was a rather splendid composer of problems.
