Here's an
interesting new crew photo courtesy of Doug McInnes who flew during
the early days with Eric Langlois, Flight Commander of A Flight at
Fontaine Chaude and Kairouan. This one is a bit blurry but is
interesting all the same. Eric won the DFC and was tragically killed
in action on his third tour of ops out of the UK. The photo was taken
by Gordon Wilson the Bomb Aimer, (l-r) 2 ground crew, Eric Langlois,
Buck Taylor, Tony (?) an unknown gunner and Doug McInnes.
