I have a family interest in Flt Sgt R W Cornelius. I was pointed towards your site and the research done re the crash of an aircraft in 10 Sqd RAF in which he was Flt Engineer in 1943.
I would like to find out more and confirm my relative is the same R W Cornelius.

Johan VAN DIJK

I am married to the niece of Flying Officer D G Howse, killed in action in a Halifax II (JD261) of 51 Squadron during a raid to Gelsenkirchen on 25/26 June 1943. He was shot down by G. Radusch of 1 NJG based at Venlo. His grave was again visited in September 2014. I am in possession of a photo of him along with crew members that I have yet to identify.

You have a helpful and informative web-site.

Just desired to say I'm just lucky I happened onto your website page!

Ian Tippett

Great site - keep it up, these courageous men and women need to be remembered.

Celestin

lots of information on this website, really good job. I found this website when looking for informations about JD 406 Halifax plane, crashed in Meuse/France. Also looking to contact Jean Ragheb, niece of Sgt. Wenmoth, to share information about that plane.
I live close to the crash location, and we try to built a memorial for the JD406 crew. Hope Jean Ragheb can help.

Josh

I was brought to your website, looking for information on a Horsa Glider (LG999) /Sterling Bomber (LJ842)accident on the night of April 4th 1944 close to where I live now. I must say, despite the tradgedies that surround this website, it is truely wonderful to find a website that has such a depth of information. As a young wannabe (excuse that word)historical researcher, i know i will be visiting your website time and time again.
Many Thanks

Gill Chesney-Green

What a lovely website... was so pleased to see mention of dad and his Stirling...and the fact that they had been shot down. What an amazing amount of work!! To be able to research others who so gallantly played their part is wonderful. Many, many thanks!

Arthur Lee

I came here looking for information on the man that shot down my great uncle during WW2. I found him and my uncle was his 26th of 34 kills.

Thank you to all involved in this amazing website. Not only are you honouring lost loved ones, you have created a wonderful resource for historians studying war and genealogists tracking ancestors. I appreciate knowing more about the final flight of my ancestor than is offered on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission site. Sad and brief though it is, the information gives me more insight into this man's service than just his name and critical dates.

Bill

I was a young boy playing football with friends when we witnessed Wellington Bomber X3547 strike a barrage balloon cable and its tragic crash at Leighton, Crewe on the site of the now Leighton Hospital.
I seem to remember a second smaller aircraft possibly a fighter weaving about behind the Wellington prior to it making contact with the balloon cable.
I now live about 2 miles from Byley Churchyard where two members of the aircrew now rest.
So sad and in memory of the many brave young lives lost.

Thank you so very much Kelvin for the work you have done in order to honour the service of F/O Richard Norman Foster. I can see my mom smiling down at the honour you have given Rich in acknowledging his service. I will not forget. Every blessing to those who served and to the families who lost their loved ones in order for us to have our freedom. Forever grateful.

Barry Maguire

My grandfather John Gallagher died on a raid on Goch on 7th Feb 1945 six years before I was born.
He was a flight engineer on a Halifax bomber of 102 squadron based at Pocklington. The aircraft was apparantly shot down by a night fighter over Hamme Mille in Belgium. I know very little of him if anyone has any information or pictures please make contact.
May I just say what a fantastic job Kelvin Young and his team are doing
