The coffin of Flt Sgt Peter Brown, a Jamaican-born WW2 RAF airman after his funeral service at the Royal Air Force's historic St Clement Danes Church, on 25th May 2023, in London, England. Hundreds of members of the armed forces, the Caribbean community, friends and neighbours attended the service because Flt Sgt Brown was one the last 'pilots of the Caribbean', a group of Afro-Caribbean volunteer RAF personnel but when he died at the age of 96 no family members were traced and so a campaign followed to recognise his wartime service and for a military send-off in London's central RAF church.
