Following the societies success in locating the crash site of Vickers Wellington R1451 on the 16th September 2011, along with the unveiling of the memorial the following year on the 3rd September 2012, in association with the land owners, David and Lynne Parker, we were again for a third time privileged to meet with relatives of another victim of the crash, the rear gunner Ronald Clifford. After being contacted by Jamie Clifford we were able with the assistance of the land owners, to arrange the visit in the morning of the 1st of July, on behalf of her father, Nephew to Ronald Clifford. Later that afternoon they were also able to visit Ronald’s grave at the Commonwealth War Graves Commission Cemetery, at Botley, Oxford.
