Miscellaneous Information
At the time 21 Sqn at RAF Methwold. It seems highly unlikely that this serviceman was with 21 Sqn, given that he is buried in India. IBCC has yet to find any information to confirm or deny and invites the public to help in researching this loss. CWGC records indicate 21 Sqn and this has been confirmed not to be a scanning error, by reference to the original CWGC records. |
