Fighterbeau is on a distinguished road
Loss of RAF ground crew FEPOWs

I'm new here, last signed in in 2009, so please forgive me if I am not using the system correctly.

We have in our local church a reredos in memory of RAF Cpl William Henry Lucas, buried at Ambon CWGC cemetery in Indonesia. He died while a Japanese prisoner of war.

I'd like to get more information than exists on the CWGC site. No one knows what the reredos represents, although there is an almost hidden carving which gives bare details of who put it there.

Can I get something more here? Air Historical Branch were helpful when I first started looking at him some time ago, but records seem to be sketchy - not surprising given the theatre.

Regards
