Hello
Gaston Caron, he featured in a small way in a previous posting, now I've decided to give him his own topic.
All I currently know at present is:
Gaston Caron, he featured in a small way in a previous posting, now I've decided to give him his own topic.
All I currently know at present is:
- He was Canadian, served in Wellesbourne, England during 1944.
He was originally a navigator on the Wellington MF509, but was replaced due to illness.
He survived the war as there is no mention of him on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission website.
He may have been from the the Montreal area as were some of the other crew memebers, but this has not been verified.
Gaston is shown in the picture with the rest of the Wellington crew, his replacement was Jules Villeneuve.
Any advice and tips on where to look is appreciated.
