G. K. Chadwick

B&S. PO RAF. Andrew Behan has researched this man but says there is little available:

Pilot Officer George Kenneth Chadwick was a member of the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, service number 111553, and was attached to No.19 Operational Training Unit based at RAF Forres, in Balnageith, Moray, Scotland. He died on 26 May 1942 whilst piloting a Armstrong Whitworth Whitley twin engine bomber aircraft, serial number P5092, when, three nautical miles south east of Lossiemouth, Moray, a photoflash bomb exploded and the aeroplane crashed into the sea. He was buried in Grave 32, Row B, at the Kinloss Abbey Burial Ground, Kinloss, Moray. Probate records show that his home address was Shameen, Dinarth Park, Rhos-on-Sea, Colwyn Bay, Denbighshire, Wales and that his effects totalled £1,243-16s-8d. He is also commemorated on the war memorial in Colwyn Bay.
