Dear David,
This is just to wish you a very happy and safe 1945. I would have written before to wish you a Merry Christmas, but I had mislaid your address. I am not sure whether I found it in time to give it to Jacqueline before she left for Britain. She asked for it especially, I remember, as she wanted to see you and your wife and your mother. In case you have not heard from her, I think it would be very cheering for her if you could drop her a line. She has been in England nearly four weeks now. Her address is: Ldg/Wren J. M Hale W867; C.F.M.O; 24 Haymarket, London. She has been in the Wrens for nearly two years now, and she was tremendously pleased when she and two of her friends were drafted for Overseas this autumn. Jackie is now 21 years old.
How is the little daughter? When last we saw Ken Lawson he had not seen her but said that “from all reports” (no doubt her father's) she was the finest baby in England.
We had Will [word indecipherable] with us for over three weeks in October. It was very nice having him. He spoke a lot about you, and the visit you spent with them in Porta Down, Ireland. Will is still in Bermuda, and is very pleased to be there.
Has Ken started on his 4th tour of operations yet? He is stretching his luck pretty far, I am afraid. He was [underlined] so [/underlined] kind in endeavouring to find out all possible information about Warrie, [underlined] after [/underlined] he was reported missing. You have, of course, heard of that. The later news has been very bad – but it is from the Germans – and there are certain inconsistencies about the reports that make them, to my husband and myself, very inconclusive. These reports have not, in fact, been given out at all to the next of kin of the two British crew members, by the British Casualty Branch, and merely reported, as such, to the New Zealand mother with the comment that the report was vague, unconfirmed and unevidential, and that the classification in the case
[page break]
of the N.Z. boy F/O Johnnie Fall would not be altered from “Missing”. The [deleted] evidence [/deleted] report, however, that came “from a secret source, from which no further information can be obtained” said that “all the crew” had lost their lives and yet Ottawa is the only Casualty Branch that has accepted the report as conclusive. So we are not giving up hope. Neither are any of the other next of kin. But it is a very long time – over six months.
We were very sorry to have missed meeting your brother while he was in Canada. I wrote him as soon as you gave me his address, but I rather think he didn't get to Montreal.
Hoping that you and your wife and your mother may all have a very bright, healthy, safe, and happy new year. I am
affectionately yours,
Esther M. Hale.
I don't believe I ever congratulated you upon your latest recognition of the fact that you are a hero – the medal didn't make you one, I send my love

Letter to David Donaldson from Esther Hale
Description
An account of the resource
Wishes David the best for 1945. Catches up with family news and a relation who has been posted to England. Enquires as to whether Ken has started his fourth tour yet and comments that he is stretching his luck. Mentions he was very kind and helpful when Warrie went missing. States news from Germany is bad and not all reports have gone to next of kin. However they are not giving up hope. Sorry to have missed meeting David's brother while he was in Canada. Also mentions a mutual RAF friend, Ken Lawson, who was with David in 156 Squadron until June 1943.

William (Bill) Ernest Lucas was born in Tooting Bec, London on the 16th January 1917, 3 years deep into World War One. Luckily for Bill he was not of age to endure with the fighting in the trenches. However, when Europe was engulfed into another worldwide conflict in 1939, this set way for Bill to become involved with the RAF and IBCC.
Growing up, Bill was an only child and left his school (Bec Grammar School) at the age of 15. He managed to get a job with a printers, which led to his second and only other job at an insurance company called the London and Lancashire. The company’s sports club enabled Bill to find his passion for athletics (especially running) and he was expected to participate in the 1940 Olympics until the war interfered. (https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/collections/document/30884)
A photo of Bill in his running gear is shown in https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/collections/document/30865 where he is running down 55 Graham Road in Surrey.
Bill instead competed in the 1948 Olympic Games as the games were also cancelled in 1944 due to World War Two. Luckily the games were hosted in London (https://olympics.com/en/olympic-games/london-1948) and Bill had retired from IBCC meaning that he had time to participate.
As seen in ‘Bill Lucas and the 1948 London Olympics’ (1948) https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/collections/document/30866 Bill managed to come 6th in the Second Heat meaning he was one position off of being in the final on the 2nd August 1948! This collection also includes Bill in his older prime wearing his 1948 Olympic Games jacket and the official Olympic Games programme from 1948.
When Hitler invaded Poland on September 1st 1939, Bill was 22 years old meaning that he was eligible to be part of Great Britain’s Army. Combining Bill’s hatred of the sea and his fathers recent experiences in the trenches, the RAF seemed to be the most compatible choice with Bill. (https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/files/original/520/30884/B[Author]LucasWEv10001.jpg)
Bill was not involved in Britain’s mightiest air conflict against Hitler’s Luftwaffe however, instead watching ‘The Few’ defeat the Nazi aircrafts and succeed. Being considered to be Nazi Germany’s first ‘major military defeat’, this allowed for Britain to continue fighting in the war (https://www.raf.mod.uk/our-organisation/our-history/anniversaries/battle-of-britain/ and to an extent, allowed Bill to continue his path of becoming an Squadron Leader.
It was November 1940 when Bill started his pilot training, but due to a bomber offensive being the only way to properly counter the Nazis, this was huge not just for Bill but Britain as a whole. There had never been a bomber offensive before in warfare. https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/files/original/520/30884/B[Author]LucasWEv10001.jpg
As seen in Bill’s official Pilot’s Log Book: (https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/files/original/520/24264/LLucasWE122826v1.1.pdf) his training consisted of being part of 16 Elementary Flying School at RAF Derby from 1940 to 41 , 8 School of Flying Training at RAF Montrose in 1941 and 20 Operational Training Units at RAF Lossiemouth in 1941 . He flew three different types of aircraft during his training, Miles Magister, Miles Master and Wellington I’s.
Bill’s training finally finished in August 1941 and he was posted to his first official squadron, IX Squadron at Honington. Here he flew the Wellington Bomber.

William Cragg
William (Bill) Lucas was born on January 16th, 1917 in Tooting Bec, London. He was educated at Bec Grammar School, and left at the age of 15 to work at a printing company before moving to the insurers London and Lancashire to work as an assessor. While working there, he developed his talent for athletics with the Belgrave Harriers, with his best discipline being the 5000 metres. His goal was to compete at the 1940 Olympic games. However, in 1940, Bill was called up to help the war effort and mindful of his father’s advice to avoid the army and his own dislike of the sea, he chose to join the RAF.
Initially he trained as a fighter pilot on Miles Magisters and Miles Masters, but by the time he had finished training, the Battle of Britain had been won and the need for bomber pilots was more urgent. So, he was reallocated to bombers and trained to fly the Wellington at RAF Lossiemouth. Bill Lucas · IBCC Digital Archive (lincoln.ac.uk)
Following completion of pilot training in August 1941, he was posted to RAF Honington and joined 9 Squadron flying Wellingtons. He flew 14 operational sorties – notably Cologne and Hamburg – before converting to Stirlings at RAF Waterbeach. He then joined 15 (Bomber) Squadron at RAF Wyton, flying the Short Stirling and, by August 1942, Bill had completed a full tour of 30 operational sorties (over 40 operations in total). Bill experienced tense encounters with German defences, having to take evasive action and also getting caught in a cone of five or six searchlights. To get out of the searchlight glare he had to do things with the aircraft which it was never meant to do. Returning from one mission they flew too close to Kiel and the airframe amassed a lot of bullet holes and an alarming loss of fuel. Crossing the North Sea, the tank indicators showed practically nothing and they had to divert into Woodbridge in Suffolk. The groundcrew estimated there was less than twenty-five gallons of fuel left (probably less than 6 minutes of flying time).
He was released from operational duties and was posted to RAF Lossiemouth as a flying instructor. Then in December 1944, he returned to operational flying and was posted to 162 Squadron, part of the Pathfinder force, to fly the Mosquito, an aircraft he described as “a bit quicker and more responsive; a nice aeroplane”. He completed a further 34 operational sorites with 162 Squadron, including missions over Kiel, Berlin, Hannover and Magdeburg. In recognition of his war services, Bill was awarded the DFC and was Mentioned in Despatches.
Squadron Leader Bill Lucas was released from the Service in January 1946 and returned to the insurance job he had left to join the RAF. Eventually, he left the company to become an insurance broker. He also returned to athletics and the Belgrave Harriers; he ran in various internationals and competed for Great Britain in the 5000m at the 1948 London Olympics. Athletics remained with him for the rest of his life and he gave his spare time freely, working in prominent roles in the administration of athletics. He remained a Belgrave Harrier committee member well into his 90s. He became known as “the golden voice of British Athletics” for his many years as stadium announcer at the White City .
In his later years, Bill remained prominent in RAF and Aircrew Associations. He, along with a small Band of Sussex veterans, was instrumental in helping to raise funds for the construction of the Bomber Command Memorial in London’s Green Park and the International Bomber Command Centre.

Hello Joan Darling, Well Christmas has now passed. We had quite a good feed on Christmas day – canned turkey, plum pudding etc. In addition we had quite a good cake, made of biscuits fruit & canned milk. The icing was a masterpiece – made of treacle & chocolate. It is amazing what some of the “Kriegies” can do in the way of cooking. We shall have to stay at home & do the housework while our wives go out to work & earn the cash. In the evening our block had a game of horse racing in the library. At mid-night on the 24th we had a [indecipherable word] Communion Service & on Christmas morning a Carol Service. Both were very good & I am saving the programme as a souvenir. By the way if you are able to send a parcel, it would be a good thing to include a few razor blades & an odd tube of toothpaste. This letter will probably reach you near your birthday Darling, so I will take the opportunity of wishing you many happy returns. All my love Darling, Yours always, Bob xxxxxxxxx
