My wife was a child in Albany, Georgia where RAF cadets and officers trained at Darr Aerotech and Turner field in the early 1940s. She remembers them visiting families in Albany and visiting the town. A friend who still lives in Albany went to the cemetery where seven RAF Cadets who died in training accidents are buried. Our friend has sent me pictures of the large monument, flagpole, and individual headstones. Specifically, I have pictures of the headstones of RAF Cadets E. S. Headington, E. N. G. Furze, H. D. Wilson, R. S. Wilson, J. Hartley, D. Hope, and T. Moseley.

I would be glad to post some, or all, of these pictures if someone would kindly give me instructions as I have failed to find those instructions on the site.

Additionally, I would also be glad to e-mail you any or all of the pictures if you will send me a private message.
