Kenna HUMBY DSO DFC

DSO Citation London Gazette (36267) 26th November 1943

Acting Squadron Leader Kenna HUMBY, D.F.C.
(81059), Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, No. 199 Squadron.

Squadron Leader Humby has undertaken a very large number of sorties, involving attacks on a variety of targets, including Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne and Turin. Throughout his tour, Squadron Leader Humby has displayed great skill and determination and his cool judgment in the face of opposition has inspired great confidence in his crew. He is a highly efficient flight commander, whose fine record is worthy of the greatest praise.


This pilot flew fighter aircraft for the RAF in WWII, this record has come from the RAF Archives with a log book reference. The log book is available for viewing in the RAF London archives. The data we parsed includes pilot name, rank, awards, and log book dates - but little else, i.e. country of birth or aircraft flown. We have made country of birth the UK until users edit the pilot listing to make a correction, figuring a majority will be UK pilots. We do have a reference number for the operational log book(s) available in the RAF archives, in London, and the reference numbers include: Log Book accession no. MF10048/2. If a user conducts research on this pilot and can fill in this pilot's biography further by clicking edit, or, can visit the RAF archives to inspect the log book(s) and add any aircraft serials or sortie details, this change will be reflected in your profile as recognition. Let us know if you visit the archives.
