Regarding your posted link shot , I think the year is Winter 1942 , Ramat David or Lydda (Lod) , Palestine or early 1943 Fayed ,Egypt before moving to Benghazi . The crews depicted on that link are the originals of Capt.Rolo Lawrence ( rear raw first from right on attached photo ) rather Jim Gunn's crew .Here's a shot of the original crew , RAF Ramat David, Palestine ( today's Ramat David AB , Israel Air Force ). The " Prince Charming " had nothing to do with this aircraft and past info must be attributed to early errors on Mike Hill's publication which were revised throughout the years.
