Long Ashton memorial service for Polish crash victims
Published 21 November 2010
A memorial service has taken place for seven Polish airmen who died in a plane crash near Bristol 66 years ago. They took off from RAF Blyton in Lincolnshire on a bombing raid mission but crashed in a field in Long Ashton.
All seven died despite efforts by locals to rescue them. Witnesses agreed the crew had managed to steer the plane away from houses, the school and shops.
The service is only held when 21 November falls on a Sunday. The last one was in 2004 and the next is 2021. The special service took place at All Saints' Church in Long Ashton Parish Church where a plaque has been erected in their memory on the cemetery wall.
The plaque lists the names of the crew as: J. Kisielewicz, J. T. Malkowski, W. Rucinski, J. S. Radonski, F. Kruszczak, S. Jurka and S. Jaguszczak. The men are buried in the Polish Air Force Cemetery in Newark-upon-Trent in Nottinghamshire.
