Mjr. Samuel Henry Cowley . British Army 9th Btn. Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Regiment from Harrow, Middlesex (d.19th July 1944) My great uncle Sam Cowley was killed in Normandy in the fighting around Caen in July 1944. Although listed as being in the Bedfordshire & Hertfordshire Regiment, 9th Battalion, his CWGC certificate says he was seconded to the King's Own Scottish Borderers and held the rank of Major.
I have managed to work out that the 1st King's Own Scottish Borderers landed on D-Day at Queens Beach and the 6th Battalion (as part of the 15th Scottish Division) also landed in Normandy on 15th June 1944. I would like to find out more.
If by sheer fluke anyone is able to shed more light on my great uncle through personal recollection or could recommend on-line links where I could find out more I'd be very appreciative. I live in Australia, so have to rely mainly on on-line services.

F/O. Lonsdale C. Cowperthwaite . Royal Canadian Air Force 407 Squadron from Toronto (d.12th Feb 1942) Lonsdale Cowperthwaite served in the RCAF in 407 squadron, stationed at RAF North Coates in Lincolnshire, flying the Lockheed Hudson light bomber. On 12th of February 1942 he and his two man crew took part in Operation Fuller, attempting to stop the Channel Dash of the German battleships Scharnhorst and Gneisenau. In the letter that Dale's mother received, his commanding officer, Wing Commander A C Brown, wrote:
"I can give you few details except that he took off at 13:15 yesterday afternoon with eight other aircraft and did not return. One of my other officers of whom you may have heard, Squadron Leader Anderson, is also missing.
Their operation to them into the centre of a great battle of the air. There was good cloud cover, but this was not sufficient to bring back either Dale or Andy safely.
All I know is that one pilot saw Dale leaving the cover of the cloud and going down of his own accord toward sea level. If he did do this then this probably accounts for any subsequent trouble he ran into.
Pilot Officer Lister and his two regular wireless operators were with him on the flight."

Cox . My father recently visited The Lamb Inn at Great Rissington. On the wall were various photos of ww2 airmen and stories attached. One concerning a shot down plane, possibly a Wellington, which came down near The Lamb Inn at Great Rissington in 1943. All on board died but for one John Smith. Of those who died a Mr Cox is mentioned I think he was a navigator. Can anyone please give me any info on this person as my father thinks he may be a long forgotten cousin.
