As today is the anniversary of the deaths of these firemen, I thought it may be helpful to others who may possibly be researching the familes to list the names of those killed .

Francis J BROOKING
Stanley R CRABB
Alfred J CRAPP
Bernard JASPER
John R.H. STANLAKE
Leslie G TIBBS

All were killed when the taxi carrying the crew and towing a trailer pump hit an unexploded bomb on the way to fight the fires in Devonport.

A memorial plaque was put up at Saltash Fire Station last year, dedicated to the men.
