Reg.#11823, deceased Staff Sergeant Lawrence Smyth

Here's a note from an appreciative son who comments on a photograph of his Dad which was published on website http://www.rcmpgraves.com/.

            -------------------------------
Dear Joe, Cst L. Smyth was my dad, who indeed was the tail gunner on "C for Charlie".

Dad identifies himself in the aircrew picture shown in his July, 1946 RCMP Quarterly article.

Dad rejoined the RCMP after the war, retiring in 1959 as a Staff Sergeant in 'D'Division.

He passed away in 1976, age 72, and is buried in Winnipeg, MB, a long way from his place of birth, Daingean, Offaly, Ireland.

Yours truly,

Larry Smyth
