Lt/Col Selden Raymond Edner

[Roy Nixon]

Hello Leendert,
Thanks for that, I think it was a Greek Air Force AT-6 and Selden Edner was an observer. Such a sad end to a brave and talented pilot with 5 claims for destroyed a/c, 1-shared probable and 2 damage which earned him a DFC while with 121 sqn before transfering to the USAAf in September,1942.
As his injuries were revealed after his death, so why no details of his burial place.

I'd say he is listed on this page here in a California funerla home list, the date march 22 1949 might refer to his date of burial.

www.scchgs.org/wfh/wfhe.html

newspaper stories published at the time say that his wife lived in California.

Hello Dennis,
Thanks for the leads, I am sure some one can narrow down where in San Jose he was buried, possibly along side his 4 month old daughter.
