Janine Harrington Author

Janine Harrington was born in Caterham, Surrey, and both parents served in the RAF during the war. Later, her mother shared letters written by her wartime fiance Vic Vinnell. Together with Canadian pilot Jack Fisher, Vinnell served in RAF 100 Group, No. 192 Squadron, at Foulsham in Norfolk. Their disappearance in November 1944 remains a mystery to this day. Trying to find answers, Janine and her mother became founding members of the RAF 100 Group Association. Today, Janine is Secretary of the thriving Association and Editor of their quarterly magazine Confound & Destroy. She remains passionate about preserving the history of these forgotten heroes.
