Ensign Norman B Bitzegaio,TBM-3E; enlisted crew members?

Greetings,

Seeking the enlisted crew member names of the Radioman/bombardier and turret gunner when Ensign Norman B Bitzegaio, piloting TBM-3E, BuNo 85462 of Torpedo Squadron SIX (VT-6), operating from USS Hancock (CV-19) when downed by AAA over Osaka Bay 30 July 1945.

Ground covered:
BuNo 85462 found here:

I (Vindicator I) have added image content to the Ensign Bitzegaio Find A Grave memorial.

Any help identifying these two enlisted crew members who were likely KIA when TBM-3E, BuNo 85462 was downed over Osaka Bay would be most appreciated.

Thank you.
