P/O Chester Russell Narum

Royal Canadian Air Force 432 Squadron

from:Rosemary, AB, Canada

(d.31st Mar 1944)

Chester Narum was my father's best friend. Dad had wanted to enlist also, but did not pass the medical. It was very hard for Dad to be left at home while his best buddy went off to war, and harder still to receive the news of his death. I think Dad felt guilty for not being over there with him and the others from our small village. We lost 5 young men. The battle that some felt over not being able to fight along side their friends is a battle we may not think of, but it, too, had its casualties.
