W/O Wilfred Salthouse.
RAF 12Sqd.

(d.28th July 1943)
The Lancaster III EE142 PH-G piloted by my mothers cousin, W/O Wilfrid Salthouse was shot down over Hamburg on "that night" 28th July 1943, Lancaster. Miraculously, I believe the rear gunner J.P. Bartlett survived and was made POW in Mahlberg Elbe [see Jim Forbes 12 Squadron website.] We have not a single document, photo etc of any of the crew and so I hoped to find out about the raid and perhaps some docs from the family of Sgt Bartlett whom I assume bailed out. Hope you can help
