Roger (aged 26) was the son of Arthur James Bromley and Isabel Maud Bromley and husband of Helen Gladys Bromley, St. Catherines, Ontario.
His Mustang (AM 251) was shot down by German flak.
The people of St. Pierre d'Entremont wanted his grave to remain there.
After the war ended, the townspeople exhumed his body which had been buried near the crash and his body was placed in a coffin and buried in the communal cemetery.
Further letters in his file from his wife, saying she would like his body to remain there and she knew the townspeople would care for it, as they had been doing since the crash.
for Shirley Stone (Can.)
