Death of a Airgunner

Post by smudgersmith218 »

Gents,

Most of you would have seen this, for those who have not......

Link to the telegraph obituaries regarding the death of Warrant Officer Tom McLean, who has died aged 89, was one of Bomber Command’s outstanding air gunners, credited with destroying at least seven enemy fighters, and was twice decorated for gallantry.
