I’m sure there is a story to be told,but as I only got the information from the regional paper,I don’t know what the gentlemans background is.
Would be interesting though.

RIP Mr Ball
Any more wartime biography? August 1939 with Bomber Command yet to live through to the 21st Century hints at an interesting story. An early POW perhaps?
