Stan Pascoe
Royal Air Force 82 Squadron
I am a survivor of a Blenheim V6445 which crash
landed in Northumberland 20th August 1941. My Pilot was F/Lt Dennis Gibbs
and our Observer was Laurie Cash. The aircraft was damaged during an attack
on shipping and the Observer was seriously wounded bearing the brunt of the
nose damage that occurred. Dennis Gibbs and I went on to continue our
operational flying until I was admitted into Ely Hospital with suspect lung
damage. I was grounded for a number of months, the Squadron moved on to the
Far East and Dennis survived to become an Administrator of Montserrat. He
died from a brain haemorrhage in 1985. I am now 91 and reasonably fit. I
would like to hear from anyone who may remember us from those days at RAF
Bodney.
