Harry Humphries someone you should know

Harry Humphries passed away in January of this year. Who was he?
He

was the adjutant of No 617 Squadron, The Dambusters, when it formed in the spring of 1943 and remained with the unit until a few weeks before the end of the Second World War.

A true British hero who answered his country's call when war broke out, served in a support role that allowed the unit to carry the fight to the enemy and after the war returned to civilian life and picked up where he had left if.

He will be missed.
