Update May 2015
We have recently been contacted by the grandson of Pilot Officer Gerald Leonard, DFC, who flew 27 flights in Rosie Galapagos before the plane was shot down on 4th November 1944. We have been sent photos of Rosie Galapagos, including one of the name on the plane, which we now know was actually spelt Rosi Gallapagous. Please see the section "The Halifax" for more information and photos.
