"Boston" in Ostend - Your Father in law

Hello Rory57
Per coincidence, I discovered your question about the Boston that was shot down in Ostend, Belgium on April 27th 1942. I read that your late Father in Law was a member of the crew. Unfortunately, Sgt Handford was KIA and is buried in Ostend. We visited his grave today in Ostend, November 11 2015 !

I did find some pictures made by my late Uncle, the day of the crash in Ostend. When he passed away, I got his photo album and there I did find those historic pictures.

If you want, I can send you copies of these pictures, so that the "circle is closed"

Sincerely,
Ivan
