42067 Plt Off Gerald Macdonald KiA 21 July 1940
Hi guy
The above was flying aboard a Sunderland of 204 Squadron which was shot down on 21 July 1940. He was aged 19 and was possibly an observer. His parents were listed as residing in Washington USA. Was Gerald born in USA and therefore an American citizen? Cheers Brian |

I believe his position aboard was 'second dickie'.
