Re: Looking for details for Lancaster W4239

Hi Dennis,

Thanks for that, there is a lot of information on that site, it has given me most of the ranks and numbers of the crew and also an extra crew member!

Crew list now looks like this:

Sgt W MacLoed (1053139) RAF Pilot – seriously injured
Sgt T Starkey (548376) RAF – injured
T/Sgt D Francis (1315446) RAF Air Bomber – died of injuries
T/Sgt KW Dykes (1237265) RAF – injured
P/O D Rodger (J10160) RCAF – injured
T/Sgt Guy (?) RAF? W/Op?–uninjured
Sgt RG Matthams (400416) RAAF – died of injuries

I am assuming P/O Rodger would have been aboard as an instructor, and that T/Sgt = Trainee Sergeant.

I like the fact that the NAA website has digitised copies of records, wish the UK archives could be the same!

Cheers

Si
