Evader Story
Sgt. Ralph Hall Dickson was the rear gunner of Halifax NR251. On the return journey, after bombing Hannover, the bomber was attacked by a night fight. After a second attack only one engine remained, and the pilot therefore gave the order to bail out. Dickson landed at an unknown place. Soon after he found a hiding place in the house/farm of Family Rensen at de Bathemerwerg in Haarle together with F/Sgt. F/Sgt. P.D. Watson (E0923).
