W.G. Foxley

Squadron Leader William Geoffrey Foxley (17 August 1923 – 5 December 2010) was a trainee navigator with RAF Bomber Command during World War II who suffered severe burns following a crash. He was notable for the support he gave to other burns victims and for a film appearance that gave awareness of the facial burns suffered by World War II aircrew to a wide audience. After the war, in July 1945, he became a squadron leader and retired from the Emergency List with this rank in February 1954.
