Australia's Few. 9 October 1940

Bill Millington had a quieter day on 9 October 1940. 249 Squadron only flew one patrol to Biggin Hill, commencing at 3.00 p.m. and ending at 4.45 p.m. Yet again, no action. The time not spent filling out his combat report meant he could play with his new friends. Tom Neil recalled that Bill was ‘keen on animals and I believe it was he who introduced Pipsqueak, the dog, and Wilfred, the duck, to the squadron’ about this time.
