    Hello,

    I am looking for a photo of Wing Commander ARNOLD, buried at Blankenberge communal cemetery.

    On 9 june 1941 his Wellington R 1758 was set on fire by enemy Me 109 fighters.
    Arnold held the controls to enable his crew to bail out, but for him it was to late.
    His plane crashed near the beach between Blankenberge and Zeebrugge.


    regards,

    Cnock
