Re: 11 OTU crash P/O Crook Killed 25 July 1941

I am trying to get ANY information on crew - aircraft and how P/O Frank Crook was KIA on the above date. I have very little information so any help would be good. I know where he is buried in Southgate cemetery, near London and believe he was part of 11 OTU, traded as a Air Gunner.

Thanks

Danny
