What happened to flight ED522??

[KP1]

Hi, I have the original letters  sent to my Grandfather, Thomas C Constable, in 1943/44.  There is no detail as to exactly what happened to the flight. Only that it was a Lancaster and the crew were flying over Dusseldorf and where John was interred. The letters are fragile but I have scanned them in and happy to email them to interested parties. My Mum was John's youngest sister which is probably why she had the letters after Grandad died. I understood Bill was in the Paras. I remember him saying parachuting was why his knees were so bad.
Regards Karen

Hello Karen,

That would be amazing if you could send those letters! We have been to the Reichswald Forest Cemetery twice now to visit John's grave and I have photo's if you would like to see them.

I will pm you my email address on here.

Thank you so much!

Kind regards,

Colleen

Sorry Colleen, the site doesn't allow me to open the pm you sent to get contact details. I found this site on a google search so too open to put any contact details on here. I think there is a rule about 3 posts before pm allowed. I will post again tomorrow and see if that works
Best wishes Karen
