RAF 198 Squadron

Clifford Robert Abbott was from Edmonton, Alberta. He became a Typhoon pilot with 198 RAF Squadron.

PL-26471 UK-7257 06/01/44 RAF Typhoon Fighter SQN Nearly every squadron has a mascot and the RAF Typhoon Fighter unit to which Flying Officers Hal Freeman, left, of Winnipeg, and Cliff Abbott of Edmonton, are attached is no exception. In fact, it has three - Donald the Duck, Satan the retriever and Nicky the "Heinz"pup. Trouble is, the pilots report, there's continual dissension in mascot ranks with Donald invariably getting in the last "quack".

Abbott became a teacher after the war and resided in Victoria, British Columbia.
