 F/L Harry Francis Whidborne, 30 Sqn, is credited with a Tojo on Nov 4, 1944, in Thunderbolt II HD289.  This is credited in the Enemy Aircraft Game Bag for 1944, and in the Squadron ORB.
 S/L Neil Cameron, of 258 Sqn, is credited with a half share of a Tony, on Feb 11, 1945, in Thunderbolt II HD292/L.  It was shared with W/O J McCredie, a gunner on a Liberator VI of 99 Sqn.  I could not find a reference to the combat in the 99 Sqn ORB.  Cameron's combat report is in the Squadron ORB; also credited in the EAC Adjudigated Claims Against EA/C, Feb 45.
 
 Enjoy!
 
 Frank.
