Can someone confirm this was the Flt Lt Maxwell N Sparks AFC , the last aircrew member of what was known as 'Operation Jericho' the low level raid on the German run prison at Amiens, France in 1944.
If so , sad to see no one else has remembered him. Very sorry to hear of his passing so close to the 70th anniversary of the raid itself.... Blue skies Mr Sparks, Lest We forget.
