Carl Winston Cassini (shot down 18 Dec 1944)
I'm searching for any info/photos of Flight Officer Carl Winston Cassini who died with his crew when their plane crashed in Belgium on 17/18 Dec 1944 (incident no NP934). Any info whatsoever about Carl, his family or his other crew members would be gratefully appreciated (for my father, his friend, now aged 88). (Other crew members: Bernard Mark TWILLEY, Robert HALL, Hugh Brenton JONES, Harold HILDEBRAND, Edgar Harold BARON, Richard HOLDEN and Roy Challinor HILTCHEN) |
