Edmond Bernard Allen was my uncle, although he died four years before I was born. He was one of my mother's two brothers, both of whom were killed four months apart during 1943. Her other brother, Joseph Cletus Allen, a Flying Officer in the RCAF, was killed in the crash of a training flight near Pennfield Ridge, New Brunswick on August 10, 1943. -
