Rear Gunner Sgt William Wigham and his 102 Squadron RAF Halifax Crew in 1943-44

Rear Gunner William Wigham is pictured on the extreme right with his 102 Squadron Halifax ‘Charley’s Aunt’ and her crew sometime between late 1943 and June 1944. Photograph courtesy Howard WIgham.

Howard’s research has established the following names for his father’s crew:

Flt Lt W H A Dick pilot is standing at five left, note his pilot’s wings. The other crew could include: F/O G S Patrick navigator, P/O M M Bernbaum flight engineer, Sgt G Holden, wireless operator/air gunner. F/O W Wigham, rear gunner is at the extreme right. Possibly on the photo: Flt Sgt K J Peterson, mid-upper gunner, RAAF, (‘Killed on the day I was born, 26/11/1943, after Dad obtained Henderson as a substitute rear gunner.’)

Substitute crew members were: Holmes, F/O Henderson and P/O JJ Hanrahan.

Again, can anyone reading this place these names on the photograph above, or add any additional information about these men?
