For 66 years, the brave young Spitfire pilot's final resting place had been a mystery.
Flight Lieutenant Henry Lacy Smith was shot down by the Germans five days after D-Day on a mission supporting the Allied invasion in Normandy.

His last radio message to comrades was: 'I'm going to put this thing down in a field.'

But the Australian's plane then nose-dived into the sea and he was designated 'missing believed killed'.
