Duncan SHAW,
Air
Force
Officer: (1912-2005)
Boy Airman joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1929 to learn
a trade. He served in Bomber Command and later became a wing
commander
By Buzz BOURDON,
Special to the Globe and Mail, Wednesday, December
28, 2005, Page S7
Ottawa -- When the Royal Canadian Air Force accepted Duncan
SHAW
for enlistment at the tender age of 16½, he knew his luck had
changed for the better. After taking the oath of allegiance in
April, 1929, he entered the Royal Canadian Air Force with the
rank of "boy airman" as part of a short-lived scheme to train
teenagers as skilled tradesmen. He thought he had it pretty good.
Three meals a day and a roof over his head was a lot more than
some people were getting at the beginning of the Depression.
Not only that, the air force was even paying him.
The
Royal
Canadian Air Force Mr.
SHAW was so proud to join had
been formed just five years earlier with 62 officers and 262
airmen scattered across Canada. For 10 years it was a federal
service that provided mercy flights, photo surveys, fire spotting,
fishery and smuggling patrols -- anything instead of prepare
for a war most thought would never come.
Life in the Royal Canadian Air Force at that time meant coping
with low pay and slow promotion. Despite the disadvantages, Mr.
SHAW enjoyed a good social life. In 1937, he and his unit, No.
2 (Army Cooperation) Squadron moved to Ottawa, along with No.
3 (Bomber) Squadron. "A group of Friends had sprung up who did
many things together, sort of like 'that old gang of mine.' [There
were] no steady girlfriends to siphon away the little money we
got," he wrote in a memoir.
In 1935, things slowly improved when Ottawa finally woke up to
the possibility that there might be a European war in the future
and gradually increased its defence budget. A few new squadrons
were formed and eventually the Royal Canadian Air Force had 4,000
men and 270 aircraft.
Everything changed when Canada declared war on Germany on September
10, 1939. Nine days earlier, Mr.
SHAW had been promoted flight
sergeant. Six months later, he was commissioned as an officer.
The Royal Canadian Air Force needed thousands of new officers
as it expanded to 215,200 men and women; as for the prospects
of those who had joined before the war, the sky was the limit.
By September 1, 1941, Mr.
SHAW was promoted to squadron leader.
The following year, he was in Britain as the senior armament
officer at Royal Canadian Air Force Overseas Headquarters before
being posted to the newly-formed No. 6 (Royal Canadian Air Force)
Group, part of the Royal Air Force's Bomber Command.
Mr. SHAW was now responsible for the bewildering array of bombs
and munitions required by the 14 Lancaster and Halifax squadrons
of No. 6 Group to attack German-occupied Europe in the Royal
Air Force's intensive bombing campaign. Starting in January,
1943, No. 6 Group dropped a total of 126,122 tons of bombs on
the Reich, losing 814 aircraft and 3,500-plus aircrew.
Mr. SHAW remained in the Royal Canadian Air Force after the war.
In 1957, he was posted to Metz, France, as the chief armament
officer at No. 1 Air Division headquarters. It was an exciting
time to be there, as the air division played an important part
in keeping the peace during the height of the Cold War with its
12 F-86 Sabre jet squadrons. Mr.
SHAW had overall responsibility
for the maintenance and servicing of the Sabres' weapons systems.
Retired group captain Douglas
WURTELE of Ottawa, Mr.
SHAW's boss
in Metz, recalled: "He was a very reliable officer, very calm.
You could count on him to do an excellent job. He never got excited."
During his 29-year career, Mr.
SHAW served in all three of the
Royal Canadian Air Force's eras: the pre-war period, when the
force that had trouble just surviving; the war, when the Royal
Canadian Air Force grew dramatically as the fourth-biggest Allied
air force; and the post-war years that saw it expand by 1958
to 56,000 men and women, with 41 regular and auxiliary squadrons.
After retiring in 1964 as a wing commander, Mr.
SHAW owned a
company that sold and repaired scientific instruments. But he
"loved the air force, it was his life," said his son, Douglas.
Duncan Oliver
SHAW was born on October 18, 1912, in Toronto.
He died in Ottawa on December 6, 2005, of natural causes. He
was 93. He is survived his sons Douglas and David. He was predeceased
by his wife Marjorie, his son John, his brother Archibald and
his sister Mima.
