You can look them up on the link above. All service numbers listed. The correct spelling is "Champagne" and Palmer's initials are "WF".
Lancaster LM596. 8 man crew. Also killed F/O JC Campbell, RCAF, F/O RC Clouston RCAF, TG Reynolds, RCAF. Orr was awarded the DFC.
Target Duisberg. All Chorley has is T/o 2227 Wickenby. All are buried at Reichwald and that age 38, Sgt Reynolds was well above the age associated with aircrew.
Looks like this is one that wasn't plagiarized into the lostbombers website.

Thank you Dave for the information. I couldnīt find them on the lostbombers website either. Where did you find the entire crew? On CWGC site I can only search on a name.

The lostbombers website has many losses not listed. A lot of those listed are spelled incorrectly or have erroneous information. The guy who did the site is dead so it will never be changed. Avoid if possible
