I was quite sad to learn that Tom McLean has passed away. He was a brilliant, if not the most brilliant, aerial gunner and a good man according to those who knew him. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/military-obituaries/air-force-obituaries/8702865/Warrant-Officer-Tom-McLean.html [url]http://www.worldwarbirdnews.com/2011/08/15/warrant-officer-tom-mclean-dfc-dfm-†/[/url] I highly recommend reading about him in Tom Bennett's "617 Squadron - The Dambusters at War" (Chapter 4). |

He was indeed an outstanding air-gunner and a keenly brave man! Thanks very much for posting this. All the best, Richard |
