Flt.Sgt. Norman Wallace Cook

Royal Air Force 114 Squadron

(d.5th Jul 1941)

Norman Wallace Cook was the son of William and Lilian Cook (sister of my husband's grandfather) and husband of Murielle Raie Cook. From research it would appear that Sergeant Cook together with his crew of Sergeant W. Jenkins and Sergeant B.W.F. Bates took off in formation to attack floating dock and shipping in Bergen Harbour. His Bristol Blenheim IV was either shot down or crashed. Norman was aged 27 at the date of his death, Bates W.Op/Air Gunner was aged 20. Unfortunately there is no information regarding Sergeant Jenkins. Sergeant Cook and Sergeant Bates rest locally in Mollendal Church Cemetery, Bergen, and Sergeant Jenkins is commemorated at Runnymede Memorial.
