Sergeant K R Norton 10 Squadron (d.20th December 1943) My husband's father, F/O Kenneth Seymour Lear, served in WW2 and flew in a Halifax bomber. We were told by my husband's mother, who is now deceased, that her husband was stationed at Marston Moor. I am trying to find out any history for him as he was reported missing in action and I think in the end declared dead on the 20th December 1943. My husband, like so many born during the war, never knew his father. We don't even have any photos of him. How can I find out if he was stationed at Marston Moor and if he was, if anyone has any pictures of him. He did also go to Canada for training. Can anyone help? We also don't have a date of birth for him but know he was 20 when he died.
Information from lostbombers.co.uk:
Halifax HX164, Operation Frankfurt, airborne 1637 20th December 1943 from RAF Melbourne. Cause of loss not established. Crashed near Dahlen, where those killed were buried. Their graves are now located in the Rheinberg War Cemetery. F/L Whitmarsh gained an Immediate DFM, Gazetted 31Aug43 for his outstanding airmanship during a raid that same month to Mannheim.

Time Bomber is a powerful and intriguing story set primarily in World War II France during the final days before and after D-Day. While vividly depicting the bravery, sacrifice and human experience of soldiers who fought for the Allied nations, the author expands the story into the realm of “time travel,” providing a fascinating look at the “what ifs” of the work being done by scientists during that era. Included in that group is Dr. Willem Jacob van Stockum, whose life and work inspired this book. Although Time Bomber is a work of fiction, Dr. van Stockum was a real-life figure. A brilliant mathematics professor who has been called “one of the fathers of time travel,” he was also one of the brave soldiers who fought in the War against the Nazis.
