Efforts are continuing to solve an 82-year-old puzzle surrounding the last resting place of a Castle Douglas war hero.
Squadron Leader Patrick Gifford was shot down over Belgium by a German fighter plane on May 16, 1940, and died when his Hurricane crash-landed in a field.
It’s thought the 30-year-old’s body was retrieved from the wreckage – but the location of his grave remains shrouded in mystery.
