Fg Off John Gall NZ416476 Navigator 161 (Special Duties) Squadron
I found this profile on an obscure britmodeller page (LINK) where most of the images are non-existant.
Much too important not to be shared.
Image: J M Smith
1944: 31st/1st June. Hudson V9155/Q. Ops: Operation POKER & FOOTBALL (parachuting two Dutch agents into the Netherlands)
Shot down over the Glize-Rijen night-fighter airfield and crashed close to the perimeter fence.
1: Claimed by Flak of the 6./gemischte Flak-Abteilung 665 & 5./gemischte Flak-Abteilung 591, c01:22.
