Hi Nicholas
I am very interested in the Battle of Britain and would be very interested to know the location where your late father is buried.
I understand that he sadly passed away in March 1984.
I also know the son of another pilot who flew with your father in 249 Squadron called Nigel Bentley Beard who is the son of John Bentley Beard.
