Falklands Commemoration at Barnack

Falklands Commemoration at Barnack By Brian Palmer

On Saturday, 18 June, the Barnack & District Branch of the Royal British Legion held a commemoration event at the village war memorial. Around forty people attended. Standards were paraded and wreaths laid in memory of all those who lost their lives in the Falklands conflict. We were particularly pleased to welcome Sally Eyton-Jones whose husband Lt. Cdr.John Eyton-Jones was killed on 6 May, 1982 when his Sea Harrier and that of another pilot disappeared in appalling weather after taking off from HMS Invincible. No trace of either the planes or the pilots has ever been found. John had trained at RAF Wittering and is commemorated on our memorial and his wife and two daughters lived in Barnack for ten years. Lt. Cdr. John Eyton–Jones
