Sgt. James Frederick Mayhew
Royal Air Force
(d.4th Aug 1942)
My uncle, James known as Jim Frederick Mayhew was a Sergeant Wireless Operator/Air Gunner in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve who died on 4 August 1942 following a plane crash in Nigeria. He is buried in Maiduguri Cemetery, European Section Grave 1. I believe he was the only one in the plane to loose his life. Are there any photographs of the cemetery available or does anybody know more information about the accident?
