Now Completed!Commonwealth Air Force Deaths 1939-1947 in 103 Countries

COMPLETED BY COUNTRY 20/10/2013 AT POST # 21

There were/are 127,707 Commonwealth Air Force Deaths listed on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission Database.

I have broken them down by the 103 countries where these deaths took place and added a breakdown of major Memorials by country.

You should also take into account that many members died in Air Forces other than their own countries. (eg: Over 200 Australians died in the RAF and 26 with the RNZAF.)
