Sgt. F.J. Edser (Pilot)
Sgt. H. Mott (Flight Engineer)(POW)
Sgt. S.J. Muldoon (Navigator)(POW)
Sgt. G. Jones (Air Bomber)(POW)
Sgt. P. Hinson (Wireless Operator)
Sgt. A.N. Moore RAAF (Mid Upper Gunner)
Benis Doyle (Rear Gunner)
Sgt. Muldoon had not been with 78 Sqn for very long. On 22/8/43 he had been posted to 1654 Heavy Conversion Unit (it is possible that this was actually 1652 HCU) from No. 158 Squadron. It is possible therefore that this crew were in the very early stages of their operational tour.
I have no information as to the cause of the loss of this aircraft.
Of the 3 who became POW's (the others were all killed)
Muldoon was held at Stalag 4A Hohenstein
There are 2 G. Jones on the POW list and I cannot therefore be certain which camp this particular one was held in but I suspect 4B
Mott was held in Stalag 4B Muhlberg.
As Moore was an Australian it is possible that you may be able to obtain more information from his service record. If you contact me off board I will tell you how to go about this.
It is also possible for the immediate next of kin (or yourself with the consent of that person) to obtain a copy of his service record. If you want to pursue that option, again just contact me.
