The Pilot of his crew, Lt Leonard P Redburn, was the only survivor, a bit of information on him

NOTE: the the photo above, one of the POW’s was American.....but he must have been in the RAF or another Commonwealth Country as his rank is “Flying Officer T. M. Watt”

Sorry for the late response Temujin, things have been a bit hectic. Thank You as always for the help on this. I bet it felt a bit strange, being an American with the R.C.A.F. and being "Loaned" out to an American Unit. Hope you are Safe and Health, And Again realy appreciate the help !

Cheers !
