Page Welford [1920-1942]

Sergeant (Flight Engineer) 570472, 120th Squadron, Royal Air Force. Died 18th February, 1942. Age 21. Son of Page and Gertrude Welford; nephew of Edith Dunning, of Stockton-on-Tees, Co. Durham. Buried in the Cemetery, Hinderwell, Yorkshire, Plot 2E. Grave 21. A report into the accident follows: -

 

Date: 18th February 1942

 

Duty: Anti-submarine patrol

 

On this day, Liberator I AM925 X/120 took off from RAF Nutts Corner and crashed almost at once, the tail breaking off, the aircraft was completely burnt out. Of the crew, F/O. Bannister, Sgt. Wakefield, P/O. Densham, Sgt. Wilson, Sgt. Mines and Sgt. Waite were injured. P/O. Fuller, Sgt. Welford and Sgt. Middleton were killed. P/O. Densham died of his injuries on 20 February

The Liberator had struck a radio mast situated in a field at the end of the east/west runway, leaving the tail behind. The remainder of the aircraft careered across three small fields and came to a rest almost opposite the airfield ‘Communal Site’ on the Belfast road and burst into flames. AM925 was airborne for some 300 yards before crashing. The Squadron ORB states – Time Up 04:50 hrs Time Down 04:52 hrs. The Court of Inquiry decided that the cause was the Captains failure to employ 15 degrees of flap when taking off, but not careless. It was later established that the Liberator was grossly over loaded

Because of his actions relating to the rescue of P/O. Densham from the burning aircraft, Sgt. John Felix Waite RAFVR was awarded the George Medal
