Title for image: Bill Moncur and John Horan
Describe the image: Picture taken at West Malling in 1942. These airmen were with 246 Squadron who later converted to Mosquitos. Horan was thus transferred to another squadron since he was an air gunner and not a navigator. Moncur did fly on Mosquitos in 1943, 1944 and possibly 1945. This is part of a photo album recently found. It belonged to Flight Sergeant Gerard Pelletier who is missing in action since September 3, 1942. His album had more than 200 pictures. Many photos are taken when Pelletier was with RAF 246 Squadron and later when he was transferred to RCAF 410 Squadron. These squadrons flew Boulton Paul Defiant Mk. I and later Mk. II. .
Where did your information come from?: Personal research after looking at a photo album and identifying who was who on some pictures. The photo album belongs to Flight Sergeant Gerard Pelletier's niece who scanned the entire album.
