Remembrance Day





The man on the right of this photo had the same name as me, give or take a middle name. In 1942, aged 23, he was shot down with the rest of his crew over the IJsselmeer by Reinhold Knacke, a fighter ace who would live less than a year longer himself. 

W/Ag Sergeant Thomas McGrenery's body was never found. His name is inscribed on the Air Forces Memorial at Runnymede.
