Footnote:- Pilot Officer W A Beaumont and the rest of his crew of 355 Squadron, were forced to bale out of their crippled Liberator on 2nd September 1945 whilst on a mission to drop supplies to a POW camp. He was missing in the jungle for four days. He survived by perching on a platform he had built to raise himself above the flood waters of the Ganges Delta. He had no food, but drank rain water dripping from the leaves. He was rescued after spending four days and nights in the jungle. This operation is recorded in his log book.
