Our latest greatest EXCLUSIVE SIGNED MONTAGE: John Freeborn DFC*.
Johnny Freeborn was just eighteen years old when he was posted from Flying Training School to the already acclaimed 74 'Tiger' Squadron. He flew many operations with 74 Squadron in Spitfires during the early years of the war and The Battle of Britain and he was awarded the DFC for his efforts. During a brief respite for 74, John Freeborn was promoted to Flight Lieutenant and on 29 August he was given command of A Flight. In 1941, the first couple of months saw 74 Squadron, now based at Biggin Hill flying across the Channel with 92 and 66 Squadron conducting fighter Sweeps and Circus sorties over the French coast. On 17 February 1941, John Freeborn learnt that he had been awarded a bar to his DFC. At that time he had destroyed twelve enemy aircraft and damaged many more.
