WO2 W. E. Eyre . RCAF 514 Sqd.
Having been shot down on the 3rd of August 1944, WO2 Eyre was interned in Stalag Luft 7. He had previously flown with 15 Sqd. and had a narrow escape from death by burning when Stirling LS-C crashed into a pond at Potash Farm, Brettenham, near Ipswitch, on the 11th of August 1942 at 03:37 while trying to land at RAF Wattisham. The aircraft had been badly damaged by two Ju88s, one of which was claimed damaged by return fire. F/S Eyre was saved by the heroic actions of three men, Jim, John and Stan Arbons, who chopped their way into the fuselage and dragged the injured airman to safety. The rest of the crew perished. They were: F/S A.A.B.McCausland, Sgt P.Bushby, Sgt J.B.Hammond, Sgt F.Nixon, Sgt R.Tree and Sgt J.Mile.

Able Sea. Thomas Eyres . Royal Navy HMS Urley from Manchester
My dad, Thomas Eyres, volunteered for the Royal Navy in 1943 at the age of 16. He did not speak much about his time at sea except that he was in the Indian Ocean and around Burma and Malaya. He was on HMS Lanka from 17th of August 1945 to 30th of Novemeber 1945 and later 21st of April 1946 ro 22nd of May 1946. I know that he was a qualified PFF from Feb 1944 but am unsure what this is. We only found this out when writing his eulogy after he died aged 86. He was trained on HMS Drake and served on HMS Urley, Nightjar, Valkyrie, Highflyer and Bambara as well as Lanka. I also know that he was in the concert party on some ships. I am now trying to find more information to pass on to his grandson.

Please use our Family History resources to find out more about your relatives. Then please send in a short article, with a photo if possible, so that they can be remembered on these pages.
The free section of the Wartime Memories Project website is run by volunteers. We have been helping people find out more about their relatives wartime experiences since 1999 by recording and preserving recollections, documents, photographs and small items.
The website is paid for out of our own pockets, library subscriptions and from donations made by visitors. The popularity of the site means that it is far exceeding available resources and we currently have a huge backlog of submissions.
If you are enjoying the site, please consider making a donation, however small to help with the costs of keeping the site running.
