Author MATT POOLE, a retired U.S. Government geospatial analyst, has researched Second World War RAF Liberator operations in the Far East since 1990, when he began investigating the 1944 combat disappearance of his Liverpool, UK, born-and-raised mother’s first husband, George Plank, a wireless operator/air gunner. This intense research led Matt to gain expertise in the activities of numerous RAF Liberator units primarily based in India and to assist families of Liberator veterans in learning of the exploits and sometimes losses of their loved ones. He has located many kin of the fallen, including cousins, children, widows, girlfriends and fianceés, in order to share his considerable findings with those who never knew loss details (only if they wished to know). He edited the memoir of another RAF wireless operator/air gunner, has written articles about Liberators over Burma in the RAF Association’s Air Mail magazine and has given popular Internet podcast interviews.
