Squadron Leader G.H. Ben Bennions DFC 41 Squadron RAF

[Mike Nash]

We are appealing for information about the late Squadron Leader GH (Ben) Bennions DFC of the RAF 41 squadron,
on behalf of his brother Philip, who still lives in Stoke-on-Trent, Philip has tried in vain for many years to get recognition for his brother without success, he is now an elderly gentleman who is in poor health, his only wish before he dies is to see his brother George recognised in the city of Stoke-on-Trent, were he was born. I have spoken to the The Reginald Mitchell Spitfire Museum in Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent Staffordshire in connection with a memorial or tribute of some description, and they have kindly agreed to supply a display case for our project, I wondered if anyone has anything which includes combat reports, photographs, relics or anything else on Sql Bennions which would help us to achieve this task. We also intend to supply a booklet, as due to Ben spending sixty years of his life in Yorkshire not many people is his home town know of him, which is why we intend to complete this project, which will include a memorial tribute in the town of Burslem of which he was born. we would need permissision to use anthing which is supplied or loaned for the display dut to not wishing to infringe copyright.

Regards

Mike & Linda
