The 167 casualties in this Commonwealth War Grave are mainly airmen of the RAF who died in strategic bombing operations. The plot is part of the Texel General Cemetery.
The nationalities of the fallen are mixed; Australian, British, Canadian, Czech and New Zealand.
A million Thank You’s, from our family in Canada, ..to you all for solving the mystery of the “Canadian Military Cover-Up” regarding the Death of our Grandfather, Lance Bombardier Maurice Vernon Frankton, B22078 , Killed 23 May 1945, Holland . His son, Vernon M. Frankton sadly passed away in March 2000 in Canada, never truly knowing what really happened to his father. He did know it was a “Canadian Military Cover-Up”. I will continue searching for more details. I would also like to Thank the wonderful Dutch people who have taken such Great care , looking after my Grandfather’s Grave in Bergen den Helder, Holland, Netherlands
Sincerely
Carol Frankton
