What Squadrons were these RAF Aussies in when they died.

Need help with the Squadrons these Aussies were in when they died.
These were Aussies in the RAF however their Posting at Death does not appear on the CWGC site. Can anyone assist or let me know where I can find the info?

NEVETT, HORACE ARTHUR Pilot Officer

From an old rafcommands thread:

Magister R1813

24 EFT ORB (AIR 29/621) : Luton
P/O H A Nevett, whilst instructing A/LA Batten (Hatten?), crashed at Streatley, both Instructor and pupil sustaining injuries.
16/2/41 P/O H A Nevett died in Luton & Dunstable Hospital as a result of injuries received on 10.2.41.
1180 : Cat W (all) (no fire). 1K, 1I. Streatley, Beds. 11.00hrs. Flt. authorised by instructor. No indication of exercise being carried out.
Low flying (100ft) with flaps down, turned into wind, loosing ht. on turn, turned down wind, stalled and wing hit ground.
Pilot carrying out a steep turn with flaps down & insuff. power, resulting in a stall, with insuff. ht. to recover. Recom. that low flying on type with flaps down should not be taught & instructions issued to this effect.

<CENTER><img src= "http://www.rafcommands.com/rafcommandsbanner.gif"><BR> - "P/O H.A. Nevett - 86701"

 

Baldry was buried at Burnham cemetery in Somerset.

Interesting that I am 12,000 miles away asking the same/similar question.

RIES, WILLIAM EDWARD Pilot Officer

He is reported as Killed on Active Service, which may mean that he was caught up in an air-raid on Singapore. He is listed as Adminstrative & Special Duties Branch in the LG, so not aircrew.

Interestingly he was commissioned with a whole bunch of Australians on the same date:

TONGUE, EDWIN (MM) Flying Officer

He was in the Admin & SD Branch which means that he was in one of the ground units. The date of his death is ominous because that is the date of the massacre of the wounded by the Japanese in Singapore. Other than that it is not possible to establish exact unit at the time.

Rather spooky that another Edwin Tongue diedon this date, not too far away:

Name: TONGUE, EDWIN
Initials: E
Nationality: United Kingdom
Rank: Civilian
Regiment/Service: Civilian War Dead
Date of Death: 14/02/1942
Additional information: at Pom Pong Island.
Casualty Type: Civilian War Dead
Reporting Authority: SUMATRA

 

DAVEY, JOHN JAMES Sergeant

Hampden AT181 455 Squadron on an Intruder mission

T/O 18.45 from Wigsley for a nuisance raid in SW Germany. Lost without trace. All are commemorated on the Runnymede Memorial.

Sgt J R Moody
P/O A T Daly
Sgt J J Davey
Sgt C R Scott RAAF

 

That is truly spooky as you say.

Can he be traced through his (MM)?

Flying Officer EDWIN TONGUE
M M

116822, Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve
who died age 43
on 14 February 1942
Son of Samuel and Sarah Ellen Tongue; husband of Elsie Tongue, of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Remembered with honour
SINGAPORE MEMORIAL

 

He didn't receive his MM in WW2m and there are two possible candidates for WW1:

Medal card of Tongue, Edwin
Corps: Scottish Rifles
Regiment No: 40349
Rank: Corporal

Medal card of Tongue, Edwin
Corps: Young Mens Christian Association

And it seems more likely that he wasn't Australian but married to an Ayustralian

 

Interesting!
