Sgt. Douglas Ralph Comber
Royal Air Force Bomb Aimer 622 Squadron
from:London
(d.19th Nov 1943)
My Uncle Douglas Comber was shot down over Bussy-le-Chateau in Nov 1943. The villagers under German instructions were told to take the bodies of the eight crew members to the church. Later all the crew members of the Stirling 622 Squadron were buried in the village churchyard. I have since visted the village in France and made friends with some of the people that saw the event and helped.
