    THE HURRICANE NWAMA EDITION: WINTER 2016-17 General Wilhelm Mohr (June 27, 1917 – September 26, 2016) This summer at the age of 99, General Wilhelm Mohr, wartime commander of the Norwegian No 332 Squadron based at RAF North Weald, visited the airfield to lay a wreath at the memorial in memory of the 36 Norwegian aircrew who failed to return from operations between 1942-45. In September we received news that the General passed away and, as a mark of respect the Nor- wegian flag was lowered to half-mast at the Memorial and Debt of Honour outside the North Weald Airfield Museum. We thank him for his service. He was born in Fana, in the west of Norway to land- owner Wilhelm Mohr and Emily Holm. He served as aviation officer during the Second World War, both in the Norwegian Campaign, later in the organisation of the Little Norway flying training camp in Canada, and then serving with 332 Squadron to the end of the war. He remained in the Royal Norwegian Air Force after the war and was promoted Major General in 1962, and Lieutenant General in 1964, and served as head of the Royal Norwegian Air Force. He was decorated Commander of the Order of St. Olav in 1964. His war decorations include the War Cross with sword, the British DFC, and the American Legion of Merit. Wilhelm was a regular visitor to North Weald and a great supporter of the airfield and the museum and we are proud to have known him as a friend. THE HURRICANE 2 NWAMA RECENT AIRFIELD NEWS If you have access to the Internet the best place to keep an eye on the day to day happenings on the airfield is the North Weald Airfield Facebook page to be found at https://www.facebook.com/ northwealdairfield/ You will find lots of excellent new photography popping up on its pages most days and most of it is of unique events.
