John ROSSITER of Bournemouth

Trying to locate John Rossiter of Bournemouth. In 1944 or 45 he was approximately 16 years old. His father owned a butcher shop in Bournemouth and he had a brother who was in the RAF during the Battle of Britain. Afte the war Joohn was sent to Palestine (I believe with the Palestine Police) and injured in a bomb blast. When he recovered he worked with the company that built the Comet (where his brother worked) and was in charge of setting up the equipment used in testing the Comet after one went down (off Gibraltar, I think}. John came to Canada and later worked for General Dynamics at Lake Placid and at Cape Canaveral. The last I heard from hin he was a tech rep (maybe for Gen. Dynamics) in Norway. If anyone knows of his present whereabouts would they please let me know? We would like to renew our acquaintance since I am retired (and suppose he is also). Roy and Hazel Tinsley
