Eric Stanley Few

Eric Stanley Few was a Squadron Leader, service number 83246. CWGC records his death on 21 April 1945 and his burial at Kiel War Cemetery. The local award trail records the DFC, while the general search also found the London Gazette notice for his AFC in the 1944 Birthday Honours.

Aviation Safety Network gives the checked loss account. It identifies Few as pilot of Mosquito B Mk XVI RV359 of No. 608 Squadron, with Pilot Officer Samuel Stevenson Campbell as navigator. The aircraft was lost on 21/22 April 1945; ASN records the cause and crash site as not established. The page identifies Few by service number 83246 and decorations DFC and AFC, matching the CWGC and Gazette identity trail. No target or detailed cause of loss is added because the ASN entry itself says those points were not established. These records tie the same name to the same service number, award trail and casualty date, reducing the risk of confusing him with another airman of similar name.
