A GWENT unveiled a memorial to his Second World War victim father.

Brian Williams, 64, was given a new link to his dad following a letter published in the Argus last September. It appealed for surviving relatives of the family to come forward.

Mr Williams' father, Haydn George Williams, was one of seven men killed when a Lancaster bomber was shot down close to the village of Elspeet on February 20 1944.

The memorial was unveiled on April 19 by Mr Williams and his wife Pauline, 63, and the ceremony was attended by hundreds of people.

Mr Williams, a retired payroll officer who was just seven months old when he father was killed, visited Holland for a week, going to schools to talk to children and taking part in a special service at a nearby church.
