Over on the Sails of Glory site I was telling of a man buried in the village of Needham, Massachusetts that I discovered when I lived there who was a drummer boy in the British army at Waterloo and a sergeant in the Union army at Gettysburg. In searching for his name I came across a monument in Needham to two RAF airmen who were killed in Needham during WW II. Here is what the monument reads:
"English Airmen
On Tuesday April 12, 2005 Veterans Agent John Logan assisted in dedicating a plaque located on the corner of Charles River Street and Grove Street for two English pilots who crashed their plane at that site in 1944. The pilots were Lieutenant Albery J. Dawson and First Class Stanley C. Wells. Both men were buried in Woodlawn Cemetery in Everertt, MA."
