Remembrance Day 2006 and MF509
On both sides of the Atlantic the crew of MF509 were remembered on November 11th. At the crash site in Wales a ceremony was held at 11am. In Canada the crew's story was displayed by McGill University (see below) and the story was featured in a talk given by Chris Milligan and Wes Cross to the Quebec Family History Society in Lachine on the same day. The photo shows part of the ceremony at Carreg Goch and was suppied by Arvel Michael.

I would be interested in any more memorial servives or visits to the crash site. My wifes uncle Ernest Burke was one of the airman who died in this crash. We visited the site in June 2008 and as we live in West Sussex we could arrange to come to South Wales if enough notice was given. Tel 01444247413
