    Hi Peter, and thanks for posting Clive.

    There were (8) 58sq RAF killed on this day and (2) RCAF of 58sq of which one RAF (below) was an Australian. Found him by accident.

    Are there any details on that crew above? I have listed the 58sq deaths on that day for RAF, RCAF.

    Presumably with the other (5) buried at Kiel, this would be the crew as they were all listed at Runnymede.

    Tuckfields wife was from/or lived in Broughty Ferry, Dundee however the parents were Australian and lived in Melbourne.

    Thank heavens for Geoff's search engine!
