    Having checked the book again, Henderson, T, Lewis, E.L. (wounded but remained on duty);
    Round, A.E. and a furthur name, Barnard, G.H. are not mentioned in the book regarding what happened to these four men. I hit a blank.

    Curious that both a Bombardier J H Taylor of D Battery was wounded and also a Gunner J H Taylor of B Battery was killed in a motor cycle accident - on the same paragraph???????

    I agree it's curious. The Bombardier was s/n 880183 and the Gunner was s/n 889473.

    I'm getting ahead of myself, in case Kevin's relative was part of a M10 crew.

    A film I took at the War & Peace show in 2011.



    Inside the M10.

    The article also mentions L/Bdr EH Lucket, but Appendix A shows him wounded on 29/10/1944, not 29/11/1944.
