Just saw this on an internet search. Fred was my uncle and I have a number of details of his war service and I'm about to get his war records (unless you have his records from the RAF already - hint). Last mission: 25/05/40 - 22 Sqn - Beaufort I - L4450 -Coded OA-F for Freddie.
Op: Gardening, Took off RAF North Coates at 23:00 hrs Crew: W/C H M Mellor, F/O F R Jamieson
LAC A D MacKenzie, P/O H J Cook. Lost without trace into the North Sea, off Heligoland, Germany. W/C Mellor and his crew are commemorated on the Runnymede Memorial to the Missing.
