More Post-War Graves, Hawarden

Hawarden had an RAF Station established on 1/9/1939. (A friend of ours did part of his National Service there.) I assume that is why there are so many Commonwealth War Graves Commission graves.

These are again CWGC type headstones but with domed top.

Sergeant E A Reakes, RAF, 8/1/1953 aged 28 and Sergeant E F Wheeler, RAF, 8/1/1953, aged 18.

Post-War Graves, Hawarden

These stones are dated 1955 as I recall, all RAF servicemen. A plane crash?
