WW2 Battle of Britain fighter ace Wg Cdr Christopher Bunny Currant DSO DFC signed 7 x 5 inch b/w portrait photo with separate biography card. He was credited with at least fifteen aerial victories. #Born in Luton, Currant, who was nicknamed 'Bunny', joined the RAF in 1936 and was posted to No. 46 Squadron once his training was completed. At the time of the outbreak of the Second World War, he was serving with No. 605 Squadron. He flew in the Battle of France and then the subsequent Battle of Britain, achieving a number of aerial victories during the latter. He later served as an instructor and then took command of No. 501 Squadron, flying several offensive sorties to occupied Europe. Good condition.
