Odd Bods In Special Operations

 

Have you ever wondered what the S.O.E reference on the Odd Bods banner stands for?

At Frank Sims funeral yesterday the eulogies included reference to Franks WW2 participation under the Special Operations Executive. The S.O.E was set up by Prime Minister Winston Churchill in 1940 to conduct espionage and sabotage in enemy held territories. Find out more here.

Frank flew in Sunderlands during the war and was involved in S.O.E sorties. Just one more aspect of an Odd Bod's amazing contribution during war service.
