Sorry, I can’t find anything for this record. He is RAF, so I do not have as much access to info on RAF people. Could find anything in their Operational Record Book

Temujin, I know we talked about R.A.F. and R.A.F.V.R. before, and realize that the info is not flowing on them, but it never hurts to ask 
Appreciate all the info that you are able to send my way !
Have another Canadian out of RCAF 407 Sqdn
AC1 or is it A1C ??? Edward Roland Watson, R/89236, RCAF, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Aircraft Mechanic, but supposedly he has been doing some air ops, and was killed in action on one of these ops June 13, 1942. Presume it will be in a Lockheed Hudson as that is what the squadron was flying at the time. Do you or can you find out the serial number, my investigative skills have run dry ! LOL

Aircraft was Hudson AM711
Aircraft was carrying practice bombs when it hit the mast of a wretched ship that was used for bombing practise. The Hudson crashed into the see and burned 5 miles off Selsey Bill, England. WS Patterson (Pilot), Sgts A.R. Thomas, A.N. Urquhart, G.J. Pearson and AC1 E.R. Watson and a RAF airman were all killed.
Info indicates E.R. Watson was flying as a “passenger”
