  	Both his sons were killed in action: Donald Stewart Scott died at sea after the Canso aircraft he was flying in over northern seas near the Faroe Islands was shot down by a U-boat and the 8-man crew spent over 20 hours in one 4-man inflatable raft before being rescued. Donald died of cold and exhaustion and his body was consigned to the sea by the surviving members. His name is commemorated on the Runnymede Memorial in Surrey, England. Younger son Kenneth was a Leading Aircraftsman on a Dakota transport dropping supplies to the British Army in Burma. The aircraft was hit by enemy fire and before it crashed, at about a height of 100 ft., Kenneth was seen to jump and perished in the jungle. His final burial place is in Taukkyan War Cemetery, Myanmar (Burma).
