Due only to the map of burial plots given to us by Christine & Charles (Cemetery Superintendents) were we able to locate the exact position of Sgt B G Davies's grave. We collected a few flowers that had been scattered by the wind to mark his grave for the above photographs. |

| Hind K6643 was
piloted by Sgt B G Davies and collided with Hind K6753 flown
