He is listed in the 4th Qtr Death Registers for 1940 as Daniel P Crittell - Note 'e' not 'a' which may indicate why could not find gim on Times aged 24 - Death Registered Salisbury

Thanks All, for your help with this one. The time of the crash is about an hour prior to the incident with the JU88 at the same location. There is no way that they can be connected. Are you aware how to locate injury recorded relating to ground crew? Thanks All.

I have a listing of all BofB groundcrew casualties

Chris, where would I be without you? According to the Salisbury Journal when the JU88 (who would later become 609 sqns 100th Kill) passed over Old Sarum it machine gunned the airfield causing two minor casualties to ground crew. I am looking for details of these men, name, rank post ect. Would you list cover minor injuries or is it just fatalities?? Del.

I have all injuries recorded but there are none for 21 October 40
