Notes

Flying Officer Muir was pulled from the wreckage by men from the base, but was so severely burned that he died from his injuries. The tail-gunner, though also burned, survived the accident. / Jack's service unit is listed as "#19 Operational Training Unit" on the memorial panels by the Bomber Command Museum of Canada, Nanton Alberta.
