Andy

For BL498 - I have a delivery flight to 38 MU. Force landed lost, struck trees at Bisley Glocestershire and crashed 10.12.1941 - 1st Officer HE Preston ATA safe

One way to confirm Rogers on Botha W5103 (which crashed 5 miles NE of Glossop) is to find where Rogers death was registered

Confirmed Rogers death was registered Q4 1941, Glossop (Derbyshire) Ref 7b 1262 age 24, - So he has to have been on the Botha
