I´m looking for information about John Allen Jacques, serialnumber R/58300, 40 (R.A.F. Squadron) who died on 17 October 1941 and is buried at the Reichswald Forest War Cemetery in Germany. Who was his crew, where did they crash and under what circumstances?
There were no claims by night fighters on this night so my guess would be flak. I can't help you on the location. Tom Kirby-Green was one of the "Great Escapers" that was shot by the Germans.
Thank you John, these are the soldiers who are buried in the same row. Good to know that the hole crew, except for Kirby-Green of course, are buried next to each other.
