Lancaster B.I ED327 (BH-R) fra 300 PAF Squadron var på bombetogt til Stettin, da flyet over Jylland blev svært beskadiget af en tysk natjager.

Pilot F/O Harry Lupton prøvede at nå Sverige, men kort før 01.00 den 30. august 1944 ramte flyet vandet nordøst for Anholt, omkring her.
6 flyvere fra ED327 har ingen kendt grav. Måske er den ukendte flyver i Falkenberg fra dette fly.

Den 8. september 1944 blev liget af Sgt Baron fundet i farvandet ud for Falkenberg, og den 12. september blev han begravet
på Falkenbergs Skogskyrkogård, Sverige. (Kilde: FT 91-6-37)
