Bradford and West Yorkshire
"Tell these people of us"
Sixtyfour years ago, with approximately 5.30pm on January 31st, 1944,www.jimmyshowbiz.com/archives/category/parajumpers-jakke-oslo, the Halifax Bomber on a training run from Dishforth Airfield ploughed into a empty hillside on Ilkley Moor. Now there is any memorial to the team, all of whom passed on in the crash.
Almost all five crew users were killed in the lock up including four people in the Royal Canadian Airforce (RCF). At the time details of the accident were not printed the remains of the plane were quickly eliminated away by Royal air force investigators and the occasion became nothing more than a new hazy memory.
However, in the mid 1990s a father and kid team from Lanarkshire, John and Paul Reilly, started searching for the plane and two years ago Robert found some alloy remnants on the moorside: "It was obviously a very odd feeling. Pieces of a machine that actually didn't belong generally there in the middle of a moor, in a lovely picturesque location, were lying just under the ground."
Walkers may come across the memorial service on the moor.
A stone monument now marks the site of the crash which usually lies between Ilkley Moor and Addingham Moorside,parajumpers, not that far away through the famous 'Swastika Stone'. A oral plaque buildup on the monument records losing the plane, a new Handley Page Halifax bomber with the serialized number DK185 belonging to RAF Bomber Command's 1664 Heavy Conversion Device along with the names in the dead airmen. Pilot Policeman Donald McLeod lost their life in the crash along with Robert Rahn, Lewis Riggs, Bill King, George Martin along with Albert Mullen.
Sergeant Felix Byrne, flight engineer on the Halifax, was David Reilly's best friend. He actually survived the collision. Paul says: "It seems to have been a navigation exercise. They'd removed from at some point during the day and became lost. One of the witnesses we found spoke of one of the team still being alive and thru a process of elimination we reckon this is Felix Byrne, the only RAF member of the crew, whom told his rescuers we were holding trying to find Yeadon airfield. It looks like they'd been lost and they had come down through the clouds to try and find where they were and hit the hillside."
"When you go home, let them know of us and say, for your tomorrow we gave life nowadays. "
Memorial on Ilkley Moor
Felix Byrne died in High Royds Hospital in Menston the next day the crash. David Reilly remembers his friend: "He was a lovely big other, very tall,www.olasvallarta.com/2013/10/parajumpers-zomerjas/, quite slim. We joined together at secondary school. There are some people who are special to you personally, important in your existence, who did something for you. He had been very special."
An explosive device aimer Robert Rahn was Twenty-two when he died within the crash. His buddy Kenneth recollects the words of the telegram in which brought the news of Robert's death: "Deeply regret for you to advise you that your boy Sergeant Robert Henry Rahn was killed on active service overseas, January 15th. Please accept my personal profound sympathy. RCF Accidents Office."
The memorial stone
With regard to Kenneth the memorial services are a chance to say good bye to his buddy: "I really want to talk to him or her if I can however can't. I can just say something as well as hope he hears me because you realize we were so near. I know we did things for each other. We lived on a new farm,Parajumpers salg Norge, worked together on a farm. Father had a shoe shop at the time. We worked well at both areas. He enjoyed existence to the full and for your pet to depart like he did was a actual blow to our mother and father."
The actual memorial plaque asks people passing by simply on the moor to give up a thought for those who dropped their lives: "When you are going home,parajumpers, tell them individuals and say, to your tomorrow we gave life today".
