stephen p nunn Posted 12 November , 2023 Share Posted 12 November , 2023 Privileged to attend the Rememberance Service at Stow Maries Great War Aerodrome today. The names of the 37 (HD) Squadron aircrew who made the ultimate sacrifice are listed on the granite memorial there. Located in an open space known colloquially as the Parade Ground (although it never was) they are in descending rank order – somehow regimented even in death. Of the ten names listed, five were lost flying out of Stow, three out of Goldhanger and two from Rochford. Ironically, none of them were killed by enemy action – eight died in accidents and two as a result of "friendly fire". NOT FORGOTTEN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
