Are there any books on 316Sqn?
Not in English, but I would recommend Cynk's PAF at war official history.

W/C Witozenc
Proper spelling Stefan Witorzeńc, in the BoB in 501 Sqn.
Quote:
F/O J Zurakowski
Nope, he is not Zura, who was A/S/L at the time I believe, but Tadeusz Żurakowski P-1883.

F/L B Kudrowicz
Bruno Kudrewicz

F/L Lanowski (Not sure same pilot?)
Indeed, Witold Lanny Łanowski.

S/L Rutkowski
Kazimierz Rutkowski
I cannot check index of the PAF airmen at the moment, I will add some details within few days.
