Biography

Leading Aircraftman R E Holmes served with No. 144 Squadron RAF. He died of injuries after a ground accident at Severomorsk (Vaenga), in the Soviet Arctic, on 4 September 1942. The Air Ministry casualty file states no more than this. His forenames are not established by the sources consulted — the file records only the initials R E.
ⓘHow is each connection known?›
  • FROM THE RECORDA record on this platform states this connection, quoted here in its own words.
  • CITED SOURCEAn external cited source states this connection.
  • SEVERAL SOURCESNo single source states this connection; it follows from several independent pieces of evidence, named here.
  • OUR CONCLUSIONThe platform's own editorial judgement, not a statement by a source.

This describes one connection, not the record as a whole. A connection can rest on a direct statement by a source even where the record around it is weakly supported, and the other way round.
