Cheers, Ade.

Another pic sent from Canada.
Here Sid and some of his comrades attend a wedding at North Battleford. The summer weight uniforms are interesting to see.
Cheers, Ade.

Hi Rob, thanks.
I expect he wore the RAF cap badge.
Most of the family live around Rockglen.
Cheers, Ade.

Ade, this is a great thread. Thank you very much for taking the time to post all of this. Sid would be proud!
Great stuff Ade, I find family stories fascinating, history really comes alive.
just read the thread and its amazing how much you can find out through research and "luck" with relatives .
nice work Aide, you have a good collection of info and pics
Bringing this old thread back up again as tonight I have been contacted by another family who lost a relative in this ill fated crew. Hopefully more to come!
Cheers, Ade.

I can now reveal that the family who have contacted me (and joined the forum) are relatives of:
Flight Sgt Maurice John Hargrave JERRARD - 1339621
He can be seen here standing in the middle on the back row (with the Pilot's wings)
He was the co pilot during their last ill fated flight.
Cheers, Ade.

As I was at the RAF Museum Hendon yesterday, I thought that I would add these pics of their Sunderland Mk V Flying Boat to this thread. The beauty of this exhibit is that you are allowed to walk through the aircraft's fuselage.
Cheers, Ade.
