Bridgewater, J.V. Flanagan, R.A. Eldridge, H.A. Young, V.H. Simmers, G.H. Whitehead, N.H. Barlow, A.A. Cresswell, W.B. Thomson, G. Abrahams, and J.R. Woods. In the front row, we find 2nd Lieutenants H.J.C. Seymour, C.A. Bissonnette, T.M. Harries, DFC, Captains J. Palmer, Major V.A.H. Robson, MC, Captains W.H. Longton, DFC, AFC, and D. Carruthers, 2nd Lieutenants A. Wren and A.L. Bloom, and 2nd Lieutenants H.V. Evans and P.W. Johnson, who are lying down in front. The officers are adorned with garlands, reflecting the joy and relief of the momentous occasion. The squadron was known for its use of various aircraft, including the Airco DH.9, Airco DH.4, and Avro 504K, which were essential for reconnaissance, transport, and combat missions. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the camaraderie and bravery of the aviators who served in the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Air Force during the First World War.
