Re: Crash of three C-47A's 26 November 1944
Yeomans:
A few years back I met up with Bob Griffin's widow. She gave me a copy of the crew photograph, which is now being used by the people/site who set up the commemorative seat on Reigate Hill.
Although a bit of a "thread drift", she recounted a story of how she was smuggled on board the aircraft her (then) husband and crew were undertaking (POM) just before they flew to England. By the time she was discovered, secreted away in the aircraft, it was too late to turn round; "Ah well, she might as well say " from the Check Pilot. That was the last time she saw her husband before he flew over here....
