I have just started researching my uncle Thomas George Nottingham who died 16/17 Aug 1944 on board LL972 from East Kirkby destination Stettin. At this stage I have the crew list and where he is buried but no details about what may have happened to the plane and why it crashed. Also I am curious about his burial place, I understand he was moved from his original burial place to the Cwlth Cemetary in Poznan, Poland. But the plane originally crashed at Risznow SW of Medewitz, Kreis [= District] Gammin, Pommern, Germany. Is it normal to move the bodies so far?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
