Re: 114 Sqn Loss 26-27 Sep 40
Hi Chris,
I can add: He was the son of Mr & Mrs A C Wheeler, of Mytchett Nurseries. Born at Inglemere, on Lord Roberts estate were his father was head nursery man. He came to Mytchett as a young boy and attended Ash Vale School. He passed through the Vickers Engineering Works and whilst doing so obtained his pilots licence at a Volunteer Reserve flying school near Reading. The funeral took place on Wednesday 23rd October, interment at Frimley Parish Churchyard being preceded by a service at Frimley Green Baptist Church. Six members of the local RAF acted as bearers and the Last Post was sounded by an RAF bugler from Farnborough.
Best Regards
Andy Bird
