Nyt 05 DEC 2011: Det var IKKE en Halifax, der styrtede ved Halskov, men Lancaster X!
Se fotos Merlin! Lancaster X og Press + Halskov Halifax/Lancaster.

HAL DT628 startede fra RAF Snaith den 20. april 1943 kl. 21.23 for at bombe Stettin. Flyet vendte ikke tilbage! Det forsvandt sporløst.

Sergeant (Flight Engineer) Cyril John Waring, 35 år, var søn af Arthur Henry og Martha Waring, United Kingdom.
Hans navn er på Panel 168 på Runnymede Memorial blandt mere end 20.000 navne på flyvere, der ikke har en kendt grav. (Kilde: CWGC) Se hans navn.

CWGC-databasen har ikke hans alder og heller ikke forældrenes hjemby. Det lykkedes dygtige slægtsforskere, medlemmer af Genes Reunited, at opspore hans
forældre og deres børn inklusive ham i løbet af få dage! Nu er der kontakt til den nærmeste slægtning. Hun er meget betaget af alt det hårde arbejde, som alle har
udført for at få denne sag bragt til ende. Cyril John Waring var 35 år, da han omkom.
