    Default Commonwealth Civillian casualties due to RAF War operations

    Are we interested in starting a database on this subject. I have a fair amount of information i have collected incidently, but most are NOT CWGC commemorated ( potentially some should be commemorated )

    For example

    Vickers Civilian employee Thomas Owen of 2 Springside View, Brandelesholme Road, Bury, Lancs, was killed at RAF Stradishall on 13 May 1942 when he was struck by the tailplane of Stirling R 3769 of 214 Squadron resulting in minor damage to the leading edge of the port tail plane

    Clive Myler aged 4, of 1B High Street Hirwaun, Glamorgan, was killed in Hirwaun on 28 March 1942 when he was hit by RAF vehicle 255518 whilst towing a trailer and driven by 955155 LAC Gregory
