Embarked by ship from Brisbane and travelled across the Pacific in convoy to the United States of America. Ultimate destination was Europe to reinforce and replace Allied Air crew. On arrival at San Francisco Harbour was diverted to Prince Edward Island in Canada. Spent six months flying night patrol missions searching for enemy submarines in the Atlantic Ocean - just off the coast of Halifax and St Lawrence Harbour.
