Missing airman : RAF matricule 48949

[arnaud]

Très cher Andy,

Absolutely for Bettany at Neuvilly…

But those French documents could be very wrong... I do not ask anything to anybody and absolutely not changing the headstone. This document from Red Cross is just a stone to put on the way to the truth…

If you have anything to add, I would be very pleased to read it… There are many many historical mistakes specially for Battle of France...

Bye

Fascinating and intriguing.

There seem to be many mysteries in and around Neuvilly!

I would suggest you submit a report with supporting evidential documents to the MOD.

Arnaud

Did you submit those details to the MOD/JCCC in the UK?

I'd be interested, by the way, to know the source of the documents you have scanned and posted here. Can you share that information with us?

Meanwhile, I was in the area last week so called in at Poix-du-Nord Cemetery and took a photograph of the (current) headstone above Fg Off D H Allen's grave pending its replacement with a named headstone.

Andy,

Many congratulations in seeing this case through to a most satisfactory conclusion. The family will, I know, be delighted with the outcome. Good job - well done to all concerned.

PS I now have a new shovel.
