Lost Lives Part Two


Sgt George Blatherwick died when his Stirling aircraft was shot down on a night raid in July 1942.

 My Dutch friend and I had been researching this young man. Ruud had done most of the work but I was able to track his early life and with the help of Oliver Bailey came up with the operational records of the squadron including a list of the aircrew who were killed over Geffen.
