21/4/1943 Francis McPhillips Sgt. RAF (U.R.) 12 Sqdn. 1574058
« on: Sunday 18 March 18 15:27 GMT (UK) »
Francis McPhillips (known as Sandy by his family) was born on 3/4/1924 at Leith, Edinburgh. He was the son of Edward McPhillips and Agnes Small.

His plane went down somewhere in the English Chanel on 21/4/1943. Sandy's body was never recovered but he is commemorated on the Runnymede Memorial, Panel 158. Sandy, my 1st cousin once removed, had just turned 19.

Never Forgotten.
