(PL-7856 UK-1652) 24 June 1942 - 58 Coastal Command Squadron, Gallantry in action won those decorations you see on the chests of these two young Canadians. Both are Distinguished Flying Medals. Looking pleased, on the left, is Sgt. Ken Craig, Ottawa, while Flight Sgt G.J. Strutt, Shawville, Que., is a bit more serious at the moment. -
