Oh man, I would possibly shot down for this... but the way I'm reading the crest, is that it could be No.5 Squadron Bomb and Gunnery. The only thing is... that the only No.5 Squadron was a Flying Boat unit based out of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
I believe that was his squadron. I don't really see how that makes sense the squadron he was in, since I am sure he signed up in Coquitlam. Is there any way to find a registry of soldiers from world war 2? I was able to find my great grandfathers from world war 1.
Just an aside, this is an interesting bunch who have helped me out from time to time in some of my obscure research quests.
