He is listed as 13sq for "posting at death" and cause of death "Flying Battle" (France). Do you have any info on the aircraft and the crew? | Hi Geof
Chorley gives no losses for 13 Squadron on that day, they were at that time operating out of Odiham flying the Blenheim IV. I have taken the liberty of adding your request for info on the rafcommands web site with the hope of a result.

The ageless Few were sweeping by
