There are 7 Aussie flyers from WW2 (1 RAF) and (1) from WW1 buried in 6 cemeteries in Norfolk that are still to be photographed. If you can take photographs of headstones or know somebody that can, please let me know. <table x:str="" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 928pt;" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="1237"><col style="width: 242pt;" width="322"> <col style="width: 74pt;" width="99"> <col style="width: 70pt;" width="93"> <col style="width: 53pt;" width="71"> <col style="width: 35pt;" width="47"> <col style="width: 115pt;" width="153"> <col style="width: 339pt;" width="452"> <tbody><tr style="height: 12.75pt;" height="17"> <td class="xl24" style="height: 12.75pt; width: 242pt;" x:str="GERNER, CHRISTIAN HENRY " height="17" width="322">GERNER, CHRISTIAN HENRY </td> <td class="xl24" style="border-left: medium none; width: 74pt;" width="99">Flight Sergeant</td> <td class="xl28" style="border-left: medium none; width: 70pt;" x:str="61 O T U " width="93">61 O T U </td> <td class="xl25" style="border-left: medium none; width: 53pt;" x:num="16474" width="71">6/02/1945</td> <td class="xl24" style="border-left: medium none; width: 35pt;" width="47">RAAF</td> <td class="xl24" style="border-left: medium none; width: 115pt;" width="153">Sec.
