Sgt. George Edward Reeve

Royal Air Force 101 Squadron

from:Birchanger, Hertfordshire

(d.22nd/23rd Sep 1943)

George Reeve was my mother's fiance and lived in Birchanger near Bishops Stortford in Hertfordshire. My mother's brother Bill was a very good friend of George. Bill missed George very much a and was annoyed jokingly that he had given George his sheaf-Knife for a goodluck charm and now it lies somewhere in Germany. I have a photo of George and also his last letter to my mum.

George served with the Royal Air Force 101 Squadron. His Lancaster bomber W4324 SR-M took off from Ludford Magna at 18:52 on 22nd of September 1943 on a large night raid. The Lancaster crashed at Geest Munde near Bremerhaven, Germany.
