My contact from the local RAFA has delivered the goods here.In fact he was speaking to Stanley Roberts's brother-in-law last night!

Your Flight Sergeant was born in Acrefair in 1923.He married in 1948 and emigrated to Canada where he died a few years ago.

Hello from Canada Stuart, I'm Stan's son Peter. My dad passed away in January 1974, following an aneurism. Following his demob, Stan worked in Birmingham before emigrating to successfully work his long way up to become VP of a major NA company.  He attended a veterans meeting only once that I know of, in Toronto sometime during the mid/late 60's.  I have no memorabilia of his war service, and he certainly never talked about it! But if you or Eric are still active on this site, any information regarding his wartime activity you may have photos or link to such would be so very appreciated.

Hello Peter,

Pleased to hear from you. I have no items to pass on as I was the middle man for Eric.
I will try and contact him to see if he can help at all but in the meantime send me your email address by private message just in case anything crops up.

Stuart
