Ahh, now that's the $64 million question!

I assume you mean when a CWGC entry states RAFVR or such like. It all depends upon whether they were an officer, serial number, date of death, location of burial; and the simple answer is that it is possible sometimes, but not always.

A great group of knowledgeable people reside over on rafcommands.com who seem to be able to get blood out of a stone (or a casualty out of obscure diary entry!). So if we can't find any info, then trying there is always worthwhile.
