September 19 – NI Navigator died with Guy Gibson VC. Roll of Honour

Using sources in the Netherlands, Remembrance Ni reveals the quite remarkable story of James Warwick the Dam Buster navigator from Ligoniel who died with Guy Gibson VC. Bertie White, a Parachute Regiment Sergeant from Dungannon, was shot down when parachuting onto Ginkel Heath on the second day of the Battle of Arnhem in 1944. Today’s Veterans Roll includes Sir William Munro Yool, RBAI and later a member of Queen’s OTC, who served in the army in WW1 and rose to Air Vice-Marshall in the RAF post WW2.
