Danish WW2 Pilots

Profiles

The nucleus of this site is the individual profiles of each person I have been able to find that was in air force service during the war. The profiles can be accessed though the alphabetical index.

Preben Messerschmidt

Preben Messerschmidt escaped Denmark following the German occupation and arrived in Sydney, Australia, in December 1940. He enlisted in the RAAF in June 1944 as Peter Michell and was in line to be trained as aircrew as the war came to an end.

Else Johanne Cæcilie Berantzino

Else J. C. Berantzino was working as a cook in Middlesex, when the war broke out. She was one of the Danish volunteers in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force during the war.
