MacNeil, Donald Bernard (Flight Lieutenant)

19 Squadron (Possunt Quia Posse Videntur). The Squadron was on a Ramrod operation in the Nijmegen area of Holland and had just completed a 360 degree turn to port when a Mustang aircraft, from another Squadron, flying into the sun collided with MacNeil's Mustang FB 131 cutting off the tail and part of the starboard wing. A member of 19 Squadron followed MacNeil down and reported that MacNeil had made no attempt to bail out and that his aircraft disappeared into ten tenths cloud at 5,000 feet. Flight Lieutenant MacNeil had been in a minor accident on October 26, 1942 at 9 Bombing and Gunnery School, Mount Joh, Quebec.
