Seeking ID of 607 Sqn. pilots

I am hoping to further ID the following two 607 Sqn. pilots who served in India/Burma:

W/O R. N. Sexty - First mentioned in the Form 541 on 22 Jan. 44, he claimed an Oscar damaged on 14 May 44 and shared one probably destroyed on 17 June 44. He was posted out on 25 Nov. 44. I do not find him in AIR 78 or the London Gazette. There is no recorded birth in freebmd.org.uk.
He was not in the RAAF. There is no recorded birth in New Zealand for anyone with that last name (per BMD for NZ.) So I suspect he may be RCAF.

W/O (later P/O) R. R. Wilson, RCAF - He is first mentioned in the Form 541 on 15 Sept. 43 as a Sgt. Pilot. His NCO service no. was R123471. As a F/Sgt. on 15 Jan. 44 he shared in downing a "John" (actually a Ki-43) and damaged another. He was commissioned from W/O before being posted out on 1 Dec. 44 to 1670 (Thunderbolt) Conversion Unit. Looking for his full name and officer service number.

Thanks,
Tom
