The remains of a New Zealand airman who was shot down over Germany during WWII have finally been identified after nearly 80 years.
Henry Pullar, a gunner with the Royal New Zealand Air Force, was presumed dead when the British bomber he was aboard was shot down over Germany in 1942.
Henry Pullar, a gunner with the Royal New Zealand Air Force, was deemed missing and presumed dead in 1942 when the British bomber he was aboard was shot down.
At the time of the crash only the body of the pilot, who was thrown free of the British Short Stirling heavy bomber, was discovered.
But in 2019, excavation work at an airport turned up the plane that carried the remains of six Allied airmen.
Using DNA from living relatives, scientists confirmed a body found among the wreckage belonged to the 25-year-old gunner with the Royal New Zealand Air Force.
His niece, Pam Compton, received confirmation of the DNA tests proving his identity in late December 2020.
She said: “No one in the family knew much about him at all.
