    Both these men are not listed by the Cwgc. I am confused as the Cwgc lists many SAAF aircrew deaths for 1947 in South Africa.

    26-6-1947
    No.60 Sqn SAAF
    Mosquito XVI 4801

    Crashed on the Delmas Road, near Waterkloof Air Station, Pretoria.

    Lt-Col L. A. Wilmot DSO, DFC +
    A/Cpl C. D. S. Nortje +

    See:
    85 Years of South African Air Force 1920-2005.
    Brent,Winston.
    Nelspruit:Freeworld Publications,2005.
    pp.243-4 & 426.

    Any ideas

    Sorry Mark have not been on this forum for a while. I have passed this to our SA researchers.

    Cheers
