Andrew Behan has kindly carried out some research on this man:
Sergeant Ronald Stoten was born about 1922 the son of Walter and Ellen Stoten. On 19 May 1938 he was appointed as a Postman in the London Postal Region. In the spring of 1943 he married Irene Mildred Dickenson in Brentford, Middlesex and they lived at 12 Melbourne Avenue, Ealing. He joined the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, Service Number 1392630 and was posted to No. 53 Squadron.
On the night of 7 June 1944, aged 22 years, he was on a Mk V Liberator aeroplane, Serial Number BZ778/M, that took off at 23.57 hours from RAF St Eval in Cornwall on an anti U-boat patrol in the west channel area with ten personnel on board. It is believed that it was shot down by a U-boat. Only one body was recovered near Poullan-sur-Mer in the Bay of Douarnenez, Brittany, France. Along with the other nine men who have no known grave he is commemorated on Panel 238 of the Runnymede Air Forces Memorial, Cooper's Hill Lane, Englefield Green, Egham, Surrey. Probate was granted to his widow, who had moved to Haywards Heath, Sussex. His effects totalled £207-7s-4d.
