The family lived in Canada for a time where their father Sidney worked as a civil servant. The family returned to England in 1932 and moved to Leicester where Sidney was a tailors shop manager.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leslie was killed on his sixth operation. He was the navigator of Lancaster ND840 which departed from RAF Coningsby on a daylight bombing operation to Bois de Cassan V1\/V2 flying bomb site. The aircraft was hit by flak which incapacitated F\/O Bucknell and it crashed at Eaubonne (Val d&#8217;Oise) a small town roughly 14 km ESE of Pontoise.
