Re: RAF 14 Sqn Blenheim Z5863 (15 Apr 1941)
Hello,
I can tell you that the airman you're seeking is; 905141 Sgt Edward James SMITH RAF (Thanks Simon). He is mentioned in the same Casualty Communique in Flight magazine of June 12, 1941, as P/O I Ormiston and Sgt A H Fraser RNZAF. Smith was held at Campo 337 (Dulag 339), Mantua, Italy at some time. Where he ended up, I have no idea. RAFCommands POW Listing does not mention a POW number. He was initially listed as Missing, later as, Previously Reported Missing, Now Reported Prisoner of War.
Sgt Allan Hugh FRASER, is, actually, NZ402242 (previously A402242) Sgt (Observer) Allan Hugh Lovatt FRASER RNZAF. P/O Ormiston and Sgt Fraser RNZAF, were originally buried in isolated graves near Salum, and later reinterred in a joint grave at Halfaya Sollum
Col.
