More than 73 years after 23 Allied soldiers and airmen perished when the transport plane they were flying in was shot down over Nazi Germany, one of their families finally has answers about their grandfather’s last day during the war.
“All we knew (was) that our grandfather was shot down in a plane crash,” Linda Sargeant told CTV News. “I don’t think we knew where it was.”
“You hear all these different stories,” her sister Laura Sargeant added.
Born in England, Cpl. Frederick William Sargeant, who eventually settled in Toronto, was 37 at the time of his death.
