P/O. Harry Lockley Knowles
Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve 226 Squadron
from:91 Hatton Crescent, Wollaton Park, Nottingham
(d.25th Nov 1944)
I always knew my Uncle Harry Knowles was missing believed dead during the war. I have now found out that he was in 226 Squadron and went missing on the 25th of Nov 1944. We have no further info apart from him being aged 21 years old and his mother, my grandmother never got over his death, always believing he would walk in the door one day. I would love to be able to find out how many sorties he was involved in. I do have some photos showing him training in Canada so my guess is he was flying Mitchell Bombers.
