HI ROD

Many thanks for information.
Am today Sunday 31st going to visit kens son,Paul,
to collect kens log book and some photos to copy.

Since posting, through the help of a lady in Canada, Geraldine Chase, we have made contact with the family of F/O BEATON.
I have also managed to find some details of the French helpers and resistance people who helped the guys.

Once again many thanks.


regards
Wayne.
