Dear Mr. Hamilton,
It is with regret that I refer again, after so long an interval, to the loss in action of your son, Flying Officer C.B. Hamilton D.F.C., but I feel sure you will wish to know the result of investigations undertaken by the Royal Air Force Missing Research and Enquiry Service in Germany.
As the result of the questioning of residents in the small town of Bederkesa, north east of Wesermuende, in the area where your son's aircraft is known to have crashed, it has been ascertained that the body of an airman was recovered from an aircraft at Armstorf, 12 miles East of Bederkesa, on the 14th April, 1945. He was buried in the local cemetery. The aircraft had crashed on the night of 13th/14th April, 1945. It was a twin engined, two seater, partly built of wood and obviously a Mosquito. The other occupant had baled out safely.
A search of the casualty records held in this Department has revealed that your son's aircraft was the only twin engined one missing on this night and still untraced. As the circumstances of the crash agree in every respect with those appertaining to the loss of your son there is no doubt that the airman buried in Armstorf Cemetery was he.
He has now been re-interred in the British Military Cemetery at Hamburg (Ohlsdorf) where he rests in Grave 15, Row C, Plot 10.
/This
J. Hamilton, Esq.,
"Drumvallan",
Nr. Girvan,
Ayrshire.
[page break]
This reburial is in accordance with the policy agreed upon by His Majesty's and the Commonwealth Governments, that our fallen should be transferred to specially selected military cemeteries, where the graves will be maintained, for all time, by the Imperial War Graves Commission.
I am sorry that, owing to the formidable task of our search teams, it has not been possible to let you have this information earlier, but I do hope this news, belated as it is, will afford you a measure of comfort in your sad loss.
Yours sincerely,
R W Haddock

Moss, H
Requires

Henry Moss, Flight Sergeant, served in the RAF between 22 October 1943 to 10 April 1946. He trained as an Air Gunner and was involved in bombing Kiel, Potsdam, Heligoland, and Bremen before taking part in Operations Exodus, Manna and Revue with 138 Squadron. Henry was demobilised in 1946.
Henry left school in Bradford aged 17½ just before the outbreak of war with no qualifications . He worked in a variety of jobs including a garment fitter where he made waterproof clothing for dispatch riders. Henry passed his National Service medical board and joined the Air Transport Corps which led him to choose to join the Royal Air Force.
Henry was ordered to go to Viceroy House in London to be fitted with his unforms and receive his inoculations before moving on with his next stage of his training. He was then posted to RAF Usworth in February 1944 for his primary training. This was made up of marching and learning to salute, and basic tests on arithmetic and writing to place recruits on their trade path. There were people from many different places around the globe. https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/collections/document/28928
Henry learned how to strip down and re-assemble a Browning gun blindfolded but found this a pointless exercise as at altitude, it impossible to manipulate the small parts of the weapon with gloves on.
After RAF Usworth, he was posted to RAF Pembrey to the Introductory Gunnery Course at 1 Air Gunnery School flying Ansons. He did not experience air sickness and enjoyed flying. While here Henry learned about ‘offsetting’ the release of the bombs and how to aim accurately. He was surprised to learn that from his own records that he had scored 98.5% in the exam. Over his time at RAF Pembrey, he fired a total of 300 rounds. Henry was finally selected as an air gunner/wireless operator.
Henry’s next posting was to (26 OTU) RAF Wing on the Vickers Wellington, where he crewed up. His first pilot made a mistake during a landing and while the landing was safe, the pilot was sent home. His second pilot was Sergeant Crawford who he felt safe with for the rest of the war. From here Henry went to the 1669 Heavy Conversion Unit RAF Langer on Lancasters, and 138 Squadron RAF Tempsford. Henry flew to Kiel twice; both flights were at night and while he was involved in the sinking of the German ship Admiral Sheer, he did not see anything. Henry flew operations to Potsdam and a daytime operation to the Naval base on the island of Heligoland. He can remember being able to see the other aircraft and watching the torpedo boats below; he thought the operation was a bit of a ‘dead duck’. Henry’s final operation was to Bremen when they were hit by flak but ‘nothing vital was hit’. Henry referred to Operation Manna as ‘Spam Runs’
After the war ended Henry was involved, as a camera operator, in Operation Revue which was the creation of a digital map on mainland Britain as an aid to town and country. Henry was demobilised from Personnel Dispersal Centre 100 having achieved the rank of Flight Sergeant. In total he completed 436 hours 20 minutes flying. He went straight back to his previous job as a garment cutter in Bradford, but he did not stay in contact with any of ‘his’ crew.
