1253600 Flight Sergeant Leslie Henry Fox

[johnk123]

We come across some books and poems that Leslie Fox left with his wife Mrs Ann Fox and I have now traced members of his family. We want to research the life of Leslie Fox and his service record and any contacts that may know of him or of his life. We are gathering as much information as we can with a view to placing his work and history in The British War Musium. We found the details below in the Vertual Jewish Library. I am sure there must be more information than shown below and we would be pleased to receive any information that is available.

He was a member of 101 Squadren Special Operations (SO) and was shot down over Hamburg in 1942 and it seems buried there. We would like to know how we find out the location of his grave and if any of his artifacts survived the crash and are stored anywhere.He was a prolific writer and he may have been carrying more books with him as he did write during flights.
