Years ago when I was at college about 1980/1 ,I met a fellow called Dennis Barber. Although reluctant to talk about his WW2 experiences, he did mention he was a navigator/bomb aimer on Lancs. One story was a crash landing when he was the only survivor. Also mention of crash/landing at Croydon airport.
One evening a footy game was on the tv-against Carl Zeiss Jena-he mentioned a bombing raid on the town where the factory{optical instruments} was based.
Thats all I can recall-dont remember his base,squadron,etc.At the time in my youth I didnt feel it appropriate to probe further.
Anybody out there recognise this fellow?
