With many thanks to Nicholas and Joop we were able to add this beautiful photo from F/S Henry Fletcher -Bomb Aimmer.
Some more explanation from Joop: 'B-vink' above his left breast pocket is an abbreviation of bomb aimer. This also provided assistance to the pilot of a multi-engine aircraft during the complex take-off and landing procedures.
Many thanks!

Nicholas,
did appreciate your feed back. Hopefully you got already hold of the original text written in English.
There is nothing that I can add as far as this 'case' is concerned. May be you have access to one or more good pictures of your Granddad, still to be considered as a true 'liberator'. My aim is to include it underneath to express our respect and gratitude.
Regards, Joop Thuring

Hi,
My Grandad was F/S Henry Fletcher -Bomb Aimmer. He died in 1970, before I was born. My father has been trying to find more information about his dad’s war service for a number of years as he didn’t speak about his experience much. I have just started on my journey to understand more.
