Andy Saunders is on a distinguished road
Group Captain Edward DAVIS, Station Commander, RAF Detling

According to CWGC Gp Capt Edward Peverell Meggs DAVIS AFC AM is commemorated on Panel 289 at Runnymede. He was evidently killed in the attack on Detling airfield of 13 August 1940. However, he appears only in the Addenda list of the printed CWGC Registers for Runnymede.

Can anyone throw light on this puzzle? It seems unlikely (though possible) that Gp Capt Davis could not be found after the attack. Is it possible he has a private grave somewhere and that like others in that Addenda list the CWGC simply do not know the grave location?
