The Airmen's Stories - Sgt. S Sheridan

Stephen Sheridan joined the RAF in May 1939 and trained as a wireless operator. At the outbreak of war Sheridan volunteered for aircrew duties as an Airman u/t WOp/AG.

After training he joined 236 Squadron at St. Eval on 24th July 1940. Sheridan remained with the squadron until 18th March 1942, when he was posted to 280 Squadron at Detling, an Air Sea Rescue unit.

In June 1944 Sheridan was posted to 53 Squadron at St. Eval, operating Liberators on anti-submarine patrols. The squadron also flew patrols from Iceland.

His subsequent service is currently undocumented until he was released in January 1946 as a Warrant Officer.
