205755 Sergeant Richard "Jock" Day Royal Air Force 514 Squadron (d.22nd Mar 1944) My father's brother Sgt R J Day was a wireless operator with 514 Squadron and he was shot down in a Lancaster B2 L.L 684 J.I.N. in the village of Zwartemeer near Emmen(west of the Kamerlingswijk) a mile or so from the German border during an operational flight to or from Frankfurt on the night of 22 March 1944. The aircraft crew who lost their lives were F.O. IJF Rich Sgt H John Sgt JB Underwood( pilot) Sgt AW Johnson Sgt RJ Day (wireless operator) Two members were apparently saved by parachute, but were imprisoned by the Germans. A copy of my uncle's RAF Observers & Air Gunner's Flying Logbook is now in a local museum near to his grave in Neiuw-Dordrecht: Collectie Brands (Hans Brands), Heerenstreek 11, 7885 AT, Nieuw Dordrecht.
