This means so much to me and I never met Leslie. The family always felt his loss and he was there in every conversation: 'Our Les...' and 'your Uncle Leslie...'I only wish my father could have seen the website and that Leslie, like all those other lads who didn't get a chance to live out their lives are not forgotten. Thank you so very much for creating this tribute. It is lovely.

Just a short note to say I bumped into an elderly gentleman on Sunday coming home from my parents resting place and we just ended up talking and his name was mr Wilson and he told me about his brother in the raf and the missions. .I could tell how proud he was and it was an honour to talk to him..I noticed he had raf war veteran on his hat. I told him about my uncle francis degnan who flew Lancaster bomber and dropped a few on hitlers burchaise gardens..he gave me this website to check out and id like to say its an honour to read this...thanks..gav.+7KA#

Thank you Mr Bob Wilton for your research - my great uncle William Mahaffy died in 1942 and is buried with his elder brother Henry who died in WW1 - Henry was not his uncle, but his big brother. There were just two boys in the family and one died in each war.
I hope to visit their grave one day soon.
Thanks to all

Thank you for your site, research and great work.
I searched information about my granduncle Maksymilian Frychel who was a pilot for the RAF. With your work I now know that he was a test pilot and died too young in an accident.
He flew for the British as member of the polish army, but he was part of the german minority in poland. He is a part of my family. I was born in germany and live here. I am proud to know about him. One day I will visit his grave.
Thanks again.
