Hi I read the various posts surrounding the tragic events. Leo was my uncle. I remember the family’s shock following the accident. We were told that he was the pilot... certainly he had been asked to fly the plane. He and the co-pilot were so badly damaged that his brother, John, was asked to identify him by his watch and what he had been wearing.
At his funeral the RAF attended and formed a corridor, discharging firearms in respect.
Such a sad time..he was only 8 years older than me.
