Re: F/L Jack Ethelbert Pebody, AFC - KIA 18th December 1940
Herewith some details on the two losses you requested. No sign of F/L Pebody I’m afraid. If anyone can add to these please feel free to post.

Suffered engine failure and stalled shortly after take-off for night mine-laying sortie to Wilhelmshaven and crashed at Marshchapel, south of Cleethorpes, mine exploding on impact 11.30 p.m. (Pilot) Sergeant Dennis George How, (Obs) Sergeant Paul Victor Renai, (WOp) Sergeant Ralph Gerald Hart, and (WOp/AG) Sergeant Leonard James Peachey all killed. Aircraft OA*W a write-off. 217 Squadron, St Eval Beaufort I L9823. Run out of fuel on return from night sortie to Bordeaux and ditched in the Channel, south-east of the Isle of Wight, 1.15 a.m. (WOp/AG) Sergeant Henry Eric Postill missing, (Pilot) Flight Sergeant [ ] Petch, Sergeant [ ] Hayes, and Sergeant [ ] Penver all rescued by RAF high-speed launch.
