Hello all, whilst walking past Corby Cemetery yesterday, I noticed a row of Commonwealth War Graves. One in particular caught my eye. After getting the basic details from the headstone, I turned to the internet to try and discover the circumstances surrounding his death. I found the following on the CWGC site:
Name: BAKER, THOMAS
Initials: T
Nationality: United Kingdom
Rank: Sergeant (Pilot)
Regiment/Service: Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve
Age: 22
Date of Death: 20/09/1943
Service No: 1211171
Additional information: Son of Arthur and Alice Baker, of Corby.
Casualty Type: Commonwealth War Dead
Grave/Memorial Reference: Row 62. Grave 7.
Cemetery: CORBY CEMETERY
I have tried all sorts of ‘Google’ combinations but have been unable to discover more. Can anybody out there offer any further information?
I look forward to finding out more.
Many thanks,
Dean
