Curious to know what will happen to the names on the panel at Runnymede? Will the whole panel be replaced? or the names just left alone?

[paulmcmillan]

IIRC think the panels are occasionally replaced under a maintenance schedule - when they are they are updated

Other members were: James Melville Charles Oakley, from St John's Wood, London; Lionel Arthur Walter Francis, 23, from Stanstead Abbots, Herts; Nevil Ward Brown, 22, from Beckenham, Kent; and Jack Charles Langley Stacey, 21, from Spalding, Lincs.

Our DB seems to link them to LP503 and to the date 1944-07-17 , should this be corrected?

Air Britain serials has LP503 as lost on 7.7.44, and HF736 as SOC in April 44. Anyone have the volume two of Med Bomber Losses?

Med Bomber Losses also says LP503.
I can't find the AM78 for HF736, so unable to check - anyone?
