"Fitter" with Pilot

Cpl. Roy Farnham "Fitter" and F/O Gordy Wright - Pilot, crew 81

Not only teamwork but real friendship between air and ground crews is what keeps RCAF aircraft on operations flying --- and coming back. Above Flying Officer Gordy Wright, (1526 Fergusen Road new Westminster, B.C.) Captain of a Bluenose Squadron Halifax in RCAF Bomber Group Overseas, is pictured with Cpl. Roy Danual Farnham (Lacombe, Alta) The corporal is a fitter in charge of the four motors of M. a job which he takes seriously as Wright takes his. Wright’s skillful maneuvering enabled his tail gunner to shoot down a JU88 recently.
