Re: Seeking crew descendants.
You can certainly find out who "George" is. The service files of the two Canadians will be held at the LAC in Ottawa. As you have "George's" service number they can give you his full name. The same cannot be said for "Vic". Quebec is a huge place and with no service num...

Re: Information wanted on 620 Squadron aircraft and crew.
Hello,
"Bazlik" will be Sgt Victor Bazlik of Windsor, Ontario (not really "French Canada")
"Grant" was Sgt Lawrence Grant of Miami, Manitoba. His brother, James' obituary from 2011 states he is deceased, no year given.

Went that route, Alan, looking for a birth on freebmd for the 1925 timeframe. Nothing.

Any further details of him or the rest of the cre...
