Flt.Sgt. Joseph Donald "Mac" MacGregor

Royal Canadian Air Force C Flight 76 Squadron

from:Welwyn SK Canada

Don Macgregor, 3rd from rt, and crew of Halifax bomber

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.
