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.

Poul Bedey

Poul Bedey is one of a small number of Danish volunteers in the Malayan Volunteer Air Force during the Second World War. Records indicate that he tries to volunteer for the Royal Air Force in 1942 having escaped Malaysia.

Erik Infeld (Gregers-Olsen)

Erik Infeld manages to escape from Denmark in 1941 in order to join the Norwegian forces in Canada, where he is trained as pilot. In early 1945 he is posted at No. 332 (Norwegian) Squadron in Holland and here sees the advance of the Allied Forces through Holland and Germany until the end of the war.

Preben Antonsen

Preben Antonsen was one of the Danish, who volunteered for the Royal Air Force. A cook in the Danish Club in Knightsbridge, London, before the war, he is presumed to have served as a cook.
