CREW PHOTOS

The crew photos have not been placed in any particular order.

 I have worked through the envelopes, packages and the scrap book to re-produce these photos on these pages and to preserve them electronically. The purpose of this page is to show the Crews dressed for operations, the obvious mateship between the men, and to honour all the crews that took part in various ways.

It is impossible to show all the crews so I have made a random selection. If you have a request then please email me and

if I have a picture of the requested crew I will try to get it on line,

or you could email me a picture for placement on these pages.

This author notes how young they all looked.
