arcot1751 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Hi Tony, Just watched the film, very moving. Thank you for helping these families gain some closure to an event so obviously dear to them. Hopefully one day their graves will be identified and properly marked. Best Wishes, David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redherring Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 A moving story of the loss of 739. As I recollect my father telling me, increasing numbers but not all Lancs were H2S fitted from this period. An Australian, he flew with XV Sqdn. I checked his log book and his first mission was June 12th, 1944. He spent the 19th, 20th and the 23rd June in the air on H2S training for 5 hours or so.
