Sgt Alan C. Cameron in Kittyhawk AK617. Cameron escaped on the 17th but was betrayed by Arabs and recaptured, and now sent to PoW camp in Italy.
There is nothing further on Jones in the book.
Nothing is mentioned about any Cameron from 112 Sq.

Got that and checked, hence my inquiry. From the link I presented Cameron was No. 112 Squadron but with a detachment attached to No. 3 Squadron at the time. Also the info in Shores et al does not square with that in the link I found where it is said that Cameron actually did escape.
But the links by udf_000 shows that the link I found is wrong.
All the best
