Requesting info. re. 100 Squadron Lancaster's based at RAF Grimsby (aka. Waltham)

I feel this I a bit of a long shot but here goes. Next Tuesday (Feb 10th) as part of my hobby, I will be interviewing on camera, a pilot who flew with the group. He flew 30 missions in Lancaster Mk.III ND644, squadron ID HW-N. The plane was lost over Nurnberg on its 116th mission on March 16th 1945 (I am under the impression he was not flying that mission but will learn more on Tuesday).

So in preparation for meeting him I am.trying to find out a little more of the operations they carried out during that period (43-45) so I can focus on some details of particular missions (if he flew them).

Does anyone have any information they can share with me about 100 Squadron and their operational record for that period? I intend to.ask about D-Day and the build up if they were involved...but any information on operations they carried out would be greatly appreciated before Tuesday if anyone feels they can help (or have a question they would.like asked if possible?)

Cheers, MP
