Sgt. Stanley R.J. Ainger

Royal Air Force No. 49 Squadron

from:Pensthorpe, Norfolk

I'm currently carrying out research for a possible book about Stanley Ainger who served in No. 49 Squadron at RAF Scampton. He and his crew were shot down 6th of April 1942. Stanley, who was serving as an air gunner, bailed out of their Hampden bomber and managed to evade capture. I've seen at least one account of him as being killed and buried in a war grave in Belgium which is incorrect. He survived the war and took part in the Berlin Airlift, passing away in 2001.
