I am looking for information about Colin S Gooden, South African Air Force, who was killed in action on 20 November 1941 and is buried in Wells cemetery, Somerset. Does anyone know any more please?

Hi Steve. Have you seen the South African War Graves page for Colin Spry Gooden. He was a pupil pilot killed in a mid-air collision between two Hawker Hinds of 23 Air School, Zwartkop Air station.
Grave is in Thaba Tshwane New Military Cemetery. The headstone carries the epitaph For Ever England so possibly his remains were repatriated to Wells?
