Distinguished Service Order
Flight Lieutenant Alec Panton CRANSWICK, D.F.C. (42696), No. 35 Squadron.
This officer has taken part in a very large number of sorties, involving attacks on targets in Germany, occupied territory, Italy and in the Middle East. He has always pressed home his attacks with vigour, obtaining much success. His excellent and sustained efforts have been worthy of the highest praise.
