On the 24th of June 1944 a V1 rocket landed on the 6th Guards Tank Brigade Workshop on Lenham Heath, Kent resulting in the tragic deaths of 46 REME soldiers. They are buried and commemorated in a CWG plot in Lenham Cemetery.
Of the 46 the majority are the rank of Craftsman, there are also some NCOs and a few Drivers and Privates.
