Subject: SAAF Plane went down in Hungary in 1944

Date posted: 16th August 2003

I am looking for an airman called Rudolf Hancock (or maybe Hankock). Sergeant Hancock was a wireless Operator and he was flying with 34th Squadron of 2nd SAAF Wing assiged to the 205th Bomb Group. It is very possible that he was South African. His Plane marked Liberator VI "EW 165 F" went down in Hungary in the night of 28th of August, 1944. Sgt. Hancock as the only survivor of the 7 crew members was captured and imprisoned.

Killed in action:
1. Munro, J. F. 203001V SAAF
2. Creux, P. A. 580652V SAAF
3. van der Spuy, R. D. 205866V SAAF
4. Alexander, P. St. I 328692V SAAF
5. Grice, W. H. 128649 RAF
6. Lever, B. E. 1800182 RAF
(Budapest War Cemetery at Solymr)

I would like to find out whether Mr. Hancock is still alive and if yes to get in contact with him. His photo can be found at the following link: http://www.terrasoft.hu/repulos/repulos1/frame.htm
