Royal Australian Air Force 518 Sqdn.
from:Australia
(d.16th August 1944)
William Arthur Graham was killed over the island of Tiree on 16th August 1944. This was a collision between two aircraft.Tiree is off the coast of Scotland. William was in Squadron 518.I am trying to find out more information about his wife Mabel. She was married to my husband's uncle.Here is the information that I have. They were married about 1943/44. She was from Askam and worked at Blackpool selling or making hats. She was in the WAAF and would have been at Crosby about August 1944 not really sure of that date. Does anyone remember either of them?
