Bernard Hawcroft
Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve
from:Barnsley
(d.29th April 1942)
I have found that Bernard Hawcroft, my first cousin once removed was killed in the raids on Clifton Airfield in April 1942.
I have the newspaper reports and have visited his CWGC grave in Barnsley Cemetery. His death certificate states that he died of injuries as a result of a bomb blast.
