Canadians in & around Eastbourne (Sussex) in WW2

[Michael Ockenden]

Thanks very much indeed, John, for your replies. I had some of the information from the WD but had not seen the book. It is all most interesting. The downing of the FW-190 is still remembered in the town.

In 2004, I was lucky enough to trace the pilot of the 2nd a/c and I interviewed him in Germany. He remembers the events of that day and I will include his story in the book "Canucks by the Sea", which I'm writing for Eastbourne Local History Society.

Renewed thanks.

Mike
