It is with some urgency that I would like to find out more about two airmen who were killed in 1943.

They both lived in Hove and I would like to trace any family or friends who can tell me a little more about them prior to them joining the RAF.

I know one of them lived in Westbourne Gardens but I don't know the address of the second airman.

Their names are Sergeant David Horsfall and Flying Officer William John Tytherleigh, aged 22. He was awarded the DFC. I would appreciate any information and particularly any photographs, which would be returned.

I am writing a wartime story which involves both of these airmen. The story might well be told in The Argus.

2 Harvest Close, Telscombe Cliffs,

East Sussex, BN10 7JG
