The story of "C" for Charlie

This site tells the story of "C" for Charlie and its crew, shot down over Germany during the Second World War. It began in June 2005, when Allan Lodder shared his story with his local mechanic, John Colls, who put him in touch with fellow Gympie local Greg Weir. Twelve weeks later Greg interviewed Allan at his Gympie home — and the search for the story of MZ-467 began. See the research updates and latest news page for a timeline from that first interview through to the memorial services of 2009 and beyond.
