Thought you might like to see this pic, taken on a bombing run over Essen.
It shows my late brother Jack in his position as rear-gunner and was given to me by his co-crew member the late Ted Hull.
I tell the story of meeting up with Ted here: BBC - WW2 People's War - Sgt.Jack Goldstein, RAF Bomber Command
Cheers
