From the collection of Richard Merrick

Dick’ Merrick was a pilot instructor in the BCATP, most probably in 1942 and 1943. His son is sharing his late father’s photos.

Most of these photos were taken by his father at Fort Macleod (No. 7 SFTS MacLeod). If anyone wishes to use these photos for non commercial use, please give due credit to Dick Merrick.

Dick Merrick is on this photo labeled BCATP # 7SFTS Anson1943.

His son is sharing these photos so possibly someone will recognize these students on these photos. The white flash indicates they are LACs training to be pilots.

Other photos taken. These two are most probably instructors.

 

 

 

Again, please give due credit if you use all these photos for non-commercial purposes. You might also link this post.
