Biography

Flight Sergeant Jeffrey James Grieve (27 January 1918 – 8 November 1944) was an Australian rules footballer who played with South Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL). Originally from McKinnon, Grieve made 11 appearances for South Melbourne, which all came in the 1941 VFL season. He was a second cousin of Carlton player Ollie Grieve.

Military

Grieve, who worked as a baker, enlisted in the Royal Australian Air Force in 1942. On 8 November 1944, Grieve was one of seven men on board a bomber (Halifax LK901), which crashed during a cross-country training exercise. The plane took off from Sandtoft, Lincolnshire and broke up mid air, before it came down in Glenshee, Scotland.
