Hi there, I am urgently trying to find details as to the whereabouts of the following air crew who flew with 619 squadron as part of Bomber Command. I believe they may have been based in the London area during WW2.
619 Squadron
Peter Brown: rear Gunner
Bill Bishop: Mid Upper Gunner
Stan Mays: Bomb Aimer
If anyone knows whether or not they are alive and, if they would be happy to put me in touch with them or a relative, I would be most grateful. I am a TV Researcher working on an ITV project called A Night of Heroes.
My Father Arthur Sharman, a member of the lancaster crew shot down on the last raid by 619 squadron in WWll over Berchasegarden, is at present (17/6/2012) alive and at 94years old Ibelieve is the last of his crew.
Replying to this post, even though it is quite old. My Father, George Mann, was the navigator with this crew. He is Canadian, and just celebrated his 93rd birthday May, 2015. The pilot and wireless radio operator of this crew were New Zealanders, Lou Hooper and Andy Andrews, respectively. I have a few pictures of these men and would also like to contact them or their families to share photos and information. Will check back here to watch for additional posts. Lorna
