P/O. Gerald Albion Kent
Royal Canadian Air Force 420 Squadron
from:Amherst, Nova Scotia
(d.19th July 1944)
My Dad's brother was an air gunner, P/O. Gerald Kent RCAF of No. 420 Squadron flying Halifax III LK803 PT-H. Gerald was born and raised in Amherst, Nova Scotia and lived on Summer Street. Sadly, he was killed at age 21 with the rest of his crew on 19th of July 1944 during a fighter affiliation training exercise. My parents and late relatives shared many stories about Gerald and from all accounts he was a wonderful person. Thank you for this opportunity.
