Flt Sgt. John Walters
Royal Air Force 514 Squadron
from:Marshfield, Wales
(d.19th Mar 1944)
I am trying to find details of my uncle John's death. He was a Flight Engineer on a training flight in a Lancaster which crashed at Martelsham Heath, probably Lancaster II J I - A DS.820 on 19th March 1944 from 514 Squadron. My uncle is John Walters from Marshfield, South Wales. I believe they crashed with no flaps deployed and landed at Martelsham believing it was Sutton Heath.
