Hello

(Pilot) John E.F. DOBBS - 785012 - the Graves Registration Report lists his unit as 56 O.T.U., but can't find where he died. So, possibly Hurricane X P5171...?

LAC (Pilot) Desmond W. KATES - 1376880 - registered Ampthill, Beds. The Graves Registration Report Form has his unit as 24 E.F.T.S., which links him to R1820 too?

Regards

Simon
