Sergeant Thomas "Tommy" McLaughlin
RAF 51st Squadron
(d.24th July 1943)
My wife's uncle, Tommy McLaughlin, was shot down in a raid on Hamburg
in a Halifax over Denmark in 1943. All of the crew perished (he was
the navigator). His grave is properly recorded at Aabenraa, but we
have recently come across a photograph on the internet of a memorial
stone, marking the crash site, inscribed with the crew's names
together with a short account of the shooting down and crash at
Hestehave, near Sonderborg, Denmark.
