American Aircrew in Mosquito Bomber Squadrons
 
Aside from F/O Stanley Aubrey Cooke, from 139 Squadron (KIA August 1943), were there any other American Pilots/Navigators in the Mosquito Bomber Squadrons (105, 139, 627, 692, 571, 608, 128, 142, 162, 163)?

I am aware of the Americans who flew with the Fighter-Bomber, Intruder and Night Fighter Squadrons - but no so with the squadrons listed above.

Attached photo of Capt.Harold James , he was a Ploesti low level raid
vet who moved from Libs to Mosquitos. I was in contact with him some
16 years ago and hope he's still alive. Photo taken sometime in 1944
in UK .
