C.A. Walsh og resten af besætningen på Lancaster III EE138 blev dræbt, da deres fly styrtede ned her nær Stadil, se Skilt ved Stadiløvej
syd for gården Stadiløvej 8 ved Stadil, dengang ejet af Ingemann Halkjær, nu af hans søn Erling Halkjær. Marken med nedstyrtningsstedet ejes nu af Erik Jepsen.
Flyet med besætning blev totalt knust og forsvandt i det vandfyldte hul, som flyet lavede, da det ramte jorden.

Warrant Officer Cyril Augustine Walsh, 30 år, var søn af Maurice og Bridget Walsh, Stonyford, Victoria, Australien.
Hans navn er på Panel 191 på the Runnymede Memorial blandt mere end 20.000 navne på andre flyvere, der ikke har en kendt grav. (Kilde:CWGC)

Som skrevet i Stadil - Historien blev trækorset på nedstyrtningsstedet i 1950 afløst af mindestenen. Se teksten her og se fotos fra 15. marts 2008 og 30. juni 2009.

Den 4. september 2008 blev der afsløret nye bronzetavler og en kopi af trækorset, se Stadil - Flyverminde ved en højtidelighed 65 år efter styrtet.
