230756 AC/2 Alan Leo O'Grady Royal Canadian Air Force 426 (Thunderbird) Sqdn. from:Toronto, Ontario, Canada When my dad was on his way to England, he was talking to a guy aboard the ship and told him his name was Al O'Grady. This man said "That's funny - I was just talking to another O'Grady, named Wilfrid, on the other side of the ship." It turns out that was my dad's brother, who was in the army. They didn't know they were on the same ship. The only thing he mentioned about being in York was that they would go to Bettys Bar and that he'd signed his name on the mirror there (along with 600 others). When I went there in the 1980s I couldn't find his name. I found a list of names online but it's not complete, and apparently part of the mirror was destroyed in a bombing attack.
