Show Canadian Hero Prefers Fighting to Being F eted OTTAWA. Wing Commander John Fauquier of Ottawa, who won the distinguished flying cross for his daring bombing raids over enemy territory, does not like being a hero. The commander recently received a month's leave at home and all kinds of civic and other receptions were planned for him, but he could not or would not face the music. A position at home was offered to him, but he declined. "I would much rather go back and fight," he told the Canadian authorities; au-thorities; and now he has gone back, even before his official leave time expired, to rejoin his squadron. |
