With many thanks to Nicholas and Joop we were able to add this beautiful photo from F/S Henry Fletcher -Bomb Aimmer.


Some more explanation from Joop: 'B-vink' above his left breast pocket is an abbreviation of bomb aimer. This also provided assistance to the pilot of a multi-engine aircraft during the complex take-off and landing procedures.

Many thanks!

Hi Joop I have a good picture of my grandad from his time in the RAF I could send you that. Let me know and thanks again Nicholas

Nicholas,
did appreciate your feed back. Hopefully you got already hold of the original text written in English.
There is nothing that I can add as far as this 'case' is concerned. May be you have access to one or more good pictures of your Granddad, still to be considered as a true 'liberator'. My aim is to include it underneath to express our respect and gratitude.
Regards, Joop Thuring

Hi,

My Grandad was F/S Henry Fletcher -Bomb Aimmer. He died in 1970, before I was born. My father has been trying to find more information about his dad’s war service for a number of years as he didn’t speak about his experience much. I have just started on my journey to understand more.

This article has been great to find.

Thank you
