Flt.Sgt Leslie John Kennard
Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve 40 Squadron
from:Amersham On The Hill
(d.15/16 May 1941)
My Grt Uncle Leslie Kennard (1919-1941) was Flt Sgt on Wellington Bomber R1167 of 40 Sqn. While on a re-con mission over Hannover, Germany the plane developed engine trouble (details unknown) and went down. Only one crew member survived, Percy Addison who spent the remainder of the war as a POW. Any information about the rest of the crew would be greatly appreciated.
