Sgt. Douglas Ralph Comber
Royal Air Force Bomb Aimer 622 Squadon
from:London
(d.16th Aug 1943 )
My Uncle was a crew member shot down in Bussy-Le-Chateau, France in a Stirling EJ 113Q on a return bombing raid. The villagers took the eight bodies from the plane under German instructions and took them to the village Church where they are buried in the Church Grave area. We visted and spoke to a man who was 14 at the time who helped take the crew to the Church. Also he still has part of the propeller to the Stirling in his Farm yard dug up some years later.
