Admin history	After training at a Hudson (Coastal) OTU, Andrew Hendrie completed a tour of operations with Nos. 224 and 48 Squadrons RAF. While 'on rest' from operation, his experience was largely with Sunderlands but briefly included Catalinas. He began a second tour on Wellingtons with 524 Squadron until the end of hostilities. Post war he joined the RAFVR and was on the reserve list until 1959. The four previous books he has written have been devoted to maritime operations, ever prompted by the record of RAF Coastal Command.
