He was born in 1924, in Mile End, the son of Russian-born parents Julius and Rachael Cozin (née Jablonski).
Cousin, an "ABC" transmitter operator with 101 Squadron, died on 30 August 1944, when his Avro Lancaster (serial LM479) was shot down by a German fighter over Denmark while engaged in support of a raid on Stettin. As the designated ABC aircraft, Cousin's Lancaster had responsibility for interfering with night-fighter frequencies. The raid proved successful.Foster, aircrewremembered.com.
