    Hello

    Sgt (Pilot) James LAMBERT - 513451 - the Falkirk Herald of May 24th 1941 reported the following:

    DENNY AIRMAN KILLED
    After being posted as missing a few days ago, official intimation was received yesterday that Sergt. Pilot James Lambert, of the R.A.F., has been killed in a flying accident.


    The Graves Registration Forms list both him and Jones as being with 37 M.U.

    Oddly there's another thread for this date:

    http://www.rafcommands.com/forum/sho...rman-20-5-1941

    Wellington W5712 lost on delivery flight; crashed into ground out of cloud at Arthingworth near Market Harborough. Already as casualties on this aircraft: Sgt James LAMBERT - 513451 and Sgt Claude JONES - 953904, death of both registered at Brixworth.

    Regards

    Simon

    William Percival Hutchinson 983217 I of Brynmor, Cwm Road, Dyserth, Flint I , had been captured at Maleme on 20 May and was being marched away when the prisoners and escort where fired upon by NZ machine guns. Hutchinson was badly wounded with most of his intestine shot out . He was deeply unconscious and with the fire so heavy and with most of the other prisoners by now wounded , they applied dressings and crawled away. He was not seen again but survival was impossible in the view of the other Airman present
