Our air force base is wondering who posted the information on this site. We are searching for information, photos and, most important, family contacts of Flight Sergeant William Gribbin. He and another fellow had the misfortune of being the first air fatalities at North Bay, Ontario, Canada, now the site of our base, when his RAF Mitchell bomber crashed during a training flight, 28 April 1945. We wish to honour F/S Gribbin since the 70th anniversary of his death is happening in a six weeks. We appreciate any assistance provided. Incidentally other records list him as born in Scotland, not Canada. I can be contacted at [contact link]
