I am posting in the hope that someone can point me in the right direction for research into RAF WW2 history. I have recently discovered some family photographs and documents am trying to find out where/when they were taken.

I have spent some time on internet searches and have a photo of what I now know to be a Martin Baltimore bomber registration AG714 with the crew of 4 standing next to the wing. I can make out a letter 'X' next to the roundel but that is all.

Another photo shows a Baltimore in flight taken from another aircraft and on the back is the date 30/06/42 and the words 'Near Cairo'.

A postcard from 1941 seems to indicate that the pilot attended RAF Hooton Park in that year.

Thank you.
