February 1944:

For one lucky crew, the Berlin raid was their final operation of a tour that began back in August 43 and included 10 trips to Berlin.

F/Lt Eric Hidderley (JB399) and crew left their faithful H-Harry in the trusted hands of 'A' Flight's groundcrew and said their goodbyes to 49Sqn.

In the photograph Sgt Gordon Cooper (Wop/AG in the crew) is posing for the official photographer.
