Leonard Victor William Herbert

[STAN54]

Could someone see if they can find any information on Leonard Herbert please.

This person was a member of WW2 RAF Halifax bomber which crashed in North Essex in 1943.
The aircraft flew from Pocklington and came down on the 25th February 1943 near Ardleigh, Essex.
I believe he is buried at Eltham cemetery in Woolwich at grave 299. He was aged 22.

He was the son of William Walter A Herbert and Louisa Lydia Herbert of welling Kent. And husband of Evelyn Herbert.

Many thanks.
