246775 Sgt. Andrew John Kerr Steven Royal Air Force 78 Squadron from:South Biggart Farm, Lugton, Ayrshire (d.24th August 1943) The week before he died John Steven was on the raid of Peenemunde but his aircraft crash landed just after departure. All the crew survived with only the captain suffering any injuries. The captain remained in hospital for a short time and the rest of the crew, apart from my uncle, John, were sent to training units. He joined a new crew for the next raid, Berlin, on the night of the 23rd/24th of August 1943 as the navigator. For some reason that I have been unable to discover, he baled out just after completing the bombing of Berlin. Unfortunately, he drowned in a lake. You may say he was unlucky but I think he was fated to die as the crew of the aircraft died when they were shot down over France the following week.
