No.11 OTU

No 11 OTU Westcott (satellite Oakley) was located some 5 miles SW of North
Marston in Bucks. In January 1945 a Wellington (HE740) crashed in a village field and three RNZAF crew and three RAFVR crew lost their lives. It is the intention to erect commemorative plaque in our church in April this year. We are urgently searching for more information, reminiscences or pictures of contemporary happenings and people. Since they were allegedly pushing through some 45 pilots and 80 other aircrew per month there must surely be some ground crew, aircrew or others who can help us. Any response will be most gratefully received.
