Gallagher:—“Among them was a Sergeant Pilot named Victor Bargh, of Featherston, whom they called Ketchel, which is Malay for small. He had been posted to Rangoon from Singapore. He was the idol of the ground crews, and said the A.V.G. was a corn flyer. He did the most extraordinary things in his Buffalo and was more completely at home in an aeroplane than any other pilot he had met. He did things instinctly when he was flying.” Sergeant Pilot Bargh, who is the son of Mr and Mrs W. Bargh, Pahautea, has been overseas two years.
