Monty (Moses) was born in 1924 in Whitechapel, London the son of Daniel and Leah n\u00e9e Fresco. Monty had four siblings, Julia, Joyce, Marcia and Alexander. In 1939, their father was listed as working as a newspaper printer and an ARP warden in Stepney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monty spoke German fluently and worked as the Special Operator on Lancaster LM598 which took off from RAF Ludford Magna on a night ABC (Airborne Cigar) operation to Braunschweig. It is probable that the aircraft was intercepted and shot down by Maj. Werner Husemann of Stab I.\/NJG3 over Sulingen, Weagerfeld. All crew were killed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
