Joy Burton was in the WAAF and was killed in action on June 23rd 1944 aged 21 years. She was part of a barrage emplacement in Kidbrooke in SE London when they were his by a V1 rocket. Joy lived in Wokingham, Berkshire with her parents , Tom and Claire and her younger sister, Poppy. I am looking for anyone who had knowledge of her and the family and particularly her fiancé, Norman Fryer who was also in the RAF.

Joy’s Nephew (Jeff Dean) is looking for anyone who had knowledge of her and the family and particularly her fiancé, Norman Fryer. Please contact us with any information you may have to pass onto Jeff.
