Pilot Officer Harry "Billy" Waugh
Royal Air Force 21 OTU
from:Leeds
(d.4th Feb 1942)
I am researching my great Uncle P/O Harry Waugh. I believe he was also Known as Billy. The details I have are that the Wellington he was in crashed on takeoff at RAF Moreton-in-marsh on 4th February 1942, on a night flying exercise. The plane was Wellington ic serial L7893. His crew comprised of
P/O 107518 Joseph Henry Kirk
W/O gunner Sgt Wilfred Joseph Howson
W/O gunner Sgt Robert Marshall
2 crew members survived the crash Sgt W.A.J.Brock RAAF, and one other not named. I would very much appreciate any information anyone can give regarding the crash itself or any details about my great uncle and his service within the RAF.
