Dear Christer,
it is likely Sgt. Jaroslav Sodek , RAF No. 787426 (146372), Czech national. He narrowly missed BofB serving in 32 sqn since Oct 1940, then with 258. sgn between Nov 24, 1940 and Jun 28, 1941, later with 312 sqn and 1 sqn. Second tour with 312 sqn in between 1943- 45, B Flight commander Sep 3, 1944 - Feb 1, 1945.
Returned to Czech Republic after the war, but emigrated to GB after Communist putch in 1948. Serving again in RAF as a pilot instructor.
Unfortunately I was never able to confirm the event from other source. There is only short notice in ORB and the same information in J. Foreman book ( Air War 1941 The Turning Point).
There is one photo of Sgt. Sodek with 258 sqn

Sgt. Sodek is standing first from right in third row, the second from right is another Czech pilot with 258 sqn Sgt. Frantisek Sticka (787585 /158966). Both wearing distinctive Czech Air Force Flying Badges.
There are other photos and information readily available with a correct spelling of Sgt. SODEK name.
Best. David
