M Plt Julian Malenczuk
So I was enjoying Founder's day Dinner at an Oxford college when a young woman sitting opposite me overheard some aviation related conversation and asked "Do you know anything about the Canberra?" SWMBO's eyes glazed over and off we went. Transpired that the grandfather of the young lady had been the late M Plt Julian Malenczuk, who had apparently been killed near Snowden she thought in a Canberra crash. I have discovered it was not in a Canberra but in an Anson, VM407. However, my enquirer was pretty convinced that her Grandfather was involved with the Canberra, so does anyone have any information on this aspect; however, with his date of death being 11 August 1952, it seems unlikely.
He was awarded an AFC in the New Years Honours 1952, any idea where I could find the citation?
