Friction in 118 Squadron?

I recently read an interview with SL Johnny Freeborn where his indicated his dissatisfaction with his flight commanders in 118 Squadron when he took over in June 1943. My information was that these were FL John B Shepherd DFC & bar, and FL Richard A Newbery DFC & bar. He replaced them with two Malta veterans. Were these replacements FL PWE Heppell, and FL CDM Giddings? If not can anyone supply me with the names of the replacements?
