F/O Jack Pierce Hutchinson DFC
RAAF 626 Squadron
On 24/25 February 1944 Lancaster ll797 of 626 Squadron from Wickenby was
brought down over Marsal France on the way to bomb Schweinfurt. This
was to be the 30th operation of their first tour.
The crew were:
F/O Jack Pierce Hutchinson DFC RAAF (Pilot)
F/O Peter Henry Wilson Young (Air Bomber)
P/O Leonard Goodkey RCAF
F/S Arthur Hodgson
F/S Ken Macey
Sgt Bob Edgeworth
W/O Hector Binder RCAF
and second pilot Sgt Brian Bowditch.
I believe an issue of the Wickenby Register from around 2002 contains a report about this crew. If anybody should have a copy of this, or any information at all about the crew and the circumstances of their crash, I would be very pleased to hear from
them.
