SHOT DOWN AND ON THE RUN

not attract  attention  after being brought down deep within  enemy territory.
He will urgently try to find somebody in the  Resistance  network to get him safely home.

Warrant Officer Ted Cachart

On the2nd January 1944  Ted was assigned to fly with a group of Lancaster's of 49 Squadron , approximately 60 miles north west of Berlin Ted’s skipper upon reaching his turning point dipped his wing and without any warning there was a terrifying crash, they had collided with another Lancaster.  Grabbing his parachute and climbing over the main spar, eventually reaching the back door, he clipped on this chute and jumped. All of Ted’s crew survived the collision but sadly everybody perished in the other Lancaster.
