    On the same site are these RAAF also ......

    The 467 Squadron crew were aboard Lancaster III ED531 PO-T, which took off from RAF Bottesford at 2249 on 12 July 1943 to take part in the same raid on Turin.

    It is also believed to have been engaged by flak. Part of the bomb load was jettisoned.

    Soon afterwards, the Lancaster flew into high tension cables near Thyon and crashed at 0120 local time.

    All are buried in Vevey (St Martin's) Cemetery:
    F/O G D Mitchell RAAF
