You've probably by now got a lot of material on 'Ice Cold Katy', but one former crew member was 1Lt Donald Bruce Rubin: completed a tour on Ice Cold Katy, went back to USA, returned and was killed (lead navigator) on 2 Oct 44, in a form-up collision over E Anglia. He is buried at the American Cemetery at Madingley, Cambridge. I've today photographed his grave for his younger sister and her son (in the States.)
I live near Cambridge, and know one of the BAS members, Doug Bone.
