He has no known grave and is commemorated on Runnymede Memorial. Flying log: 1st Flight recorded 11/9/1942 on “Battle”. Last entry 22/6/1943 Halifax TD 251. Target MULHEIM. 22/23/ June 1943 Mulheim. Operation Steelhead involved the use of 507 aircraft - 242 Lancasters, 155 Halifaxes, 43 Victorias, 55 Wellingtons, 12 Mosquitos. The city had not been attacked before and was a prime target as it contained steelworks, foundries, engine workshops and rolling mills. The Pathfinders had to mark this target through a thin layer of stratus cloud but reports indicate accurate initial marking. In later stages of the raid, the Pathfinder markers and the bombing moved slightly, into the northern part of the town; this had the effect of cutting all road and telephone communications with the neighbouring town of Oberhausen, with which Mülheim was linked for air-raid purposes. Not even cyclists or motor-cyclists were able to get out of Mülheim; only messengers on foot could get through. See Newton family medals lots 409, 453, 488 & 492.

[c. 1920].⁂ ?Unpublished. "We decided to die like gentlemen." - Raper."15 November [1915] It was miserable work going the rounds as the water in the trenches was icy cold and in some places one sank in the mud and water well over the knees. The men were wretched and the ground was white with frost. 16 November [1915] A curious incident occurred in the early hours. Sergt Wolling... was in a trench on my right towards a crater between the lines. Suddenly one of the bombers... shouted out 'they are coming' and Wolling felt himself seized... . He wrenched his leg free [and] threw one bomb between his legs at the man behind him which exploded and the man, he thought, said 'Have mercy'... . 15 April [1916] I saw Colonel Winston Churchill riding in the town the other afternoon. He is in command of a Scotch Fusilier Regiment which holds the line a mile or two North of us. He was wearing a steel helmet and looked a truculent fellow." - Raper.On February 4th, 1916, Major Raper became second in command of the brigade. They Brigade then moved to Armentieres, and then to Albert, and on July 2nd they attacked and captured Fricourt.

Earlier in the day" he added, "I had occasion to notice several pieces of excellent work that he did, and I intend sending in his name to the higher authorities." Major Raper was mentioned in Sir Douglas Haig's Despatch dated November 13th, 1916.
