Question James Roland Gabert Sutton

Dear All,
Do you happen to know James Sutton's full date of birth? All I have been able to find (http://www.bbm.org.uk/airmen/SuttonJRG.htm) is that he was 21 when he died, so he must have been born in 1920, or maybe in the second half of 1919.
Thank you in advance.

Dear Icare,
Thank you very, very much for your answer. It's even more than I expected. (So he was born the same day as Paul Galland... What a coincidence!)

Re: James Roland Gabert Sutton

I wasn't thinking that - more if Gabert was someone's misspelling of Gilbert as the only reference is a form of inland waterway vessel. I wondered if mother's maiden name but that doesn't seem so.
Glad to have helped - well, Mr Google did the hard bit!
