76 Sqdn Kassel Photo 22/10/43
Permalink   


Hi,

I am trying to put the names to the faces of a photo that shows 76 Squadron crews at Holme-on-Spalding Moor, preparing for a raid on Kassel 22nd October 1943. The photo can be seen at the link below,

http://aircrewremembered.com/hulthin-leif.html

If anyone can help by recognising a face or perhaps knows a relative that took part I would like to hear from them?

I have a high resolution copy of this photo and a similar one that appears in ' To See The Dawn Breaking ' by Bill Chorley. From the photo I have recognised my uncle Sgt N.M Harrison and two other members of Dibbins crew. This was the crws first operation.

22 Halifax crews took part and were captained by :-

F/S Matthews
Sgt Cable
Sgt Wade-Seymour
F/O Bolt
F/O Stewart
P/O Falgate
F/S Jenkins
F/S Murray
Sgt Dibbins
F/L Hicks
Sgt Cole
F/S Forsyth
P/O Greenacre
Lt Hulthin (crew failed to return)
F/L Williams
P/O Mann
2lt Johnson
P/O Troake
P/O Smith
F/L Steele
Sgt Davies
Sgt Whitehead


Regards,
Mike
