You're the closest we'e gotten so far 

I do tend to get a little over excited by all this  so you have to excuse me.

Did my email get to you as my account seems to be having a tantrum this morning and telling me I can't do anything.

Has anyone heard from Sarah E and her update yet?

I'm getting swamped under post-it notes and can't figure where we need to be looking for tracing the other three men forward.

Yours (looking desperately for an excuse to escape DIY),

Zoe and others...the family story as I have it:

Len (Leonard) and my G uncle Bob were friends.  Len had said that if anything happened to him would Bob look after Jose... so Bob obviously did.. he and Jose married on 11 Sept 1943 at Coventry Registry Office.  Bob was shot down a couple of times during the war... just as well he wasn't on the same plane as Len that night :-|

I find it interesting that Leonards service No. is 403556 and my G Uncle Bobs was 403010 :-)

I will post up info on Sharman and Robinson, I think it is all there, if anyone spots anything I have missed, message me asap. I plan to be on here for the rest of the day. Sorry again for the delay, I bet you lot have been sitting there twiddling your thumbs going
