Mr Brooks, who lives in Ashford, Kent, said to respect the memory of the seven man crew the bomber should be properly excavated. Mr Brooks said a grabber would be"destructive" and would leave behind body parts and"small items like a wedding ring or a watch" that he said could help identify the remains.

On the reverse of your picture is this. Signed by all the crew on completion of their CU training. Flying Officer John Frederick Harris from Swindon is in the middle of your picture and his family will want his remains and personal effects treated respectfully I’m sure.

Read with interest as I work at the site of the former base in Bexwell with some of the original buildings still standing, there's a memorial at the top of the road it would good to see the names of the crew that are listed M.I.A to finally be put to rest 🙏

Unbelievable disrespect for the aircrew’s grave.

It’s great they found it but recover it properly with all due care it deserves. This is basically exhuming a grave. If the town can’t afford to do it properly wait and see if money can be raised.
