Philip Purchall Norris Information request
 

Hi Everyone

I have been asked by the family of the above pilot died 13 Aug 1940
service No 740810, 213 squadron for any information on the crash etc all I know is he is buried in Northern France after believed being lost over the channel, that may be all but if there is anything else.

Thanks in advance
