Spitfire at Goes, Netherlands
On 22 July 1942 a Spitfire was lost at Goes on the road from Flushing to Bergen-op-Zoom, the pilot killed. He was buried as "unknown" in Flushing, Section 3 B, No 68. Presumably, this was P/O H W Harrison of 485 Sqn, lost on that day in BL815? However, the grave for Harrison is now given by CWGC as Row C, Grave 6. This was after MREU investigations sometime soon after 24 March 1946. Is this the same grave as 3 B, No 68? Or is there now another candidate for that grave location? I think probably not - although there is always a possibility if there is still an "unknown" at what is, or was, known as grave 3 B, No 68, then Harrison has two graves at Flushing.
This one for you, Bart! Last edited by Andy Saunders; 16th March 2008 at 16:29.
