1206520 Flt.Sgt. Joseph Donald "Mac" MacGregor Royal Canadian Air Force C Flight 76 Squadron from:Welwyn SK Canada My Dad Joseph Donald MacGregor was a Flight Sargent navigator with 76 Squadron on a Mark III Halifax, Holme-on-Spalding-Moor, in Yorkshire during 1944/45. All I know about his time there is what he wrote on the back of a photograph he had of his bomber, (Son of Satan) and his flight crew. He was sometimes called "Mac" or Don, never by his first name of Joseph. As far as I can make out, members of his crew were: F/Sgt Bill Williams, rear gunner, RCAF F/Sgt 'Cobber' Walker, wireless op, RNZAF F/Sgt Don MacGregor, navigator, RCAF Sgt Danny Carp, bomb aimer, RAF Sgt ?, flight engineer, RAF F/O Neat, Pilot, RAF Sgt Bill Brewer, mid gunner, RAF If there is anyone out there who knew my dad or any of his crew, I would be happy to hear from you. Additional Information: I was interested in your posting and can help with information about your fathers crew. Mike Harrison Reply

I have some information, my father was the pilot, Ralph Neat. Alan Neat Reply

I have this same photo in my mother’s photo album. She was friends with Bill Williams, who sent her the photo. The names are the same as listed, with the addition of Stan Bunny, listed 2nd from right, engineer, London, England. Also, the “skippers” first name is listed as Ralph Neat, from Ashford, Kent. Your father is listed as Mac macGregor, navigator, Canada.
