Herbert G. Gledhill

Royal Air Force

Herbert Gledhill in 1941

My mum recently passed away leaving us with her pictures. During WWII both of her brothers served in the Armed Forces Jack Proudlove in the Royal Navy and Roy Proudlove in RAF. I don't know much more than the branch they served in.

Mum also left us pictures of her two friends, Herbert G. Gledhill and William Pickles, who were in the armed service during WWII. My family knows nothing more about these two men. We also have pictures of our grandfather who was in the Bradford Fire Service during WWII.

I hope someone may know Mr Gledhill and Mr Pickles.

Additional Information:

I believe Herbert Gledhill (on the left) was a bomber on a Lancaster and was sadly classed as 'missing in action'. His parents were Walter and Anne Gledhill (I believe Walter served in the merchant navy, reaching the rank of captain in both World War 1 & 2). Herbert had a sister, Jean, who was my mother.
