"På vej til to jyske modtagepladser med våben til den danske modstandsbevægelse nedstyrtede et Stirling fly natten til den 7. oktober 1944 på gården Stamphøjs jorder i Gørding sogn. Ved flyvraget blev fundet et dræbt besætningsmedlem, R.F. Philp fra Queensland i Australien." (FAF)

Se mindesten netop her ved hegnet, hvor Philp blev gravet ned af den tyske værnemagt. Det er ca. 300 m nord for Skalstrupvej 14, 7570 Vemb, ca. 700 m nord for gården Stamphøj og ca. 3 km nord for Gørding Kirke, hvor Philp blev begravet den 15. juni 1945.

Efter nødlandingen  klarede Flying Officer (Wireless operator) K.H. Walker og Squadron Leader (Pilot) G.E. Abecassis at være på fri fod i nogle dage. AOD har mere.

A perished member of the crew, R.F. Philp from Queensland, Australia was found at the wreck. (Source: FAF)

See the memorial stone just here at the hedgerow, where Philp was dug down by the German Wehrmacht. It is about 300 m north of Skalstrupvej 14, DK-7570 Vemb, about 700 m north of the farm Stamphøj and about 3 km north of Gørding Church, where Philp was buried on 15 June, 1945.

After the emergency landing Flying Officer (Wireless operator) K.H. Walker and Squadron Leader (Pilot) G.E. Abecassis managed to stay at large for some days. AOD has more.

1 airman from STI LK 238 is buried in Gørding, 2 became POWs and 4 evaded to Sweden with help from the resistance movement.

69 perished airmen from this and 14 other planes are commemorated on the Memorial Plaque in Rebild. They lost their lives on flights with weapons to the
Danish resistance. For the same reason they are commemorated in London. See 69 airmen - St. Clement Danes. See Google Map Rebild with 15 + 3 planes lost.
