I have just sent an email off, requesting permission to post it here. Fingers crossed!
There is no paralell in warfare, to such courage and determination in the face of danger, over so long a period. Such devotion, should never be forgotten.

Hi Bob,
I can just make out the squadron code as MG, which makes this 7sqdn RAF.

I have just recieved permission to post the 1661CU Winthorpe Stirling crew photo, problem is that it's 321kb, too large to post, and reducing it takes away the quality. I'm no pc brain, so advice welcome.
