Squadron Daily Diaries shows Canso 9752 flying on May 19, 20 and 22, 1944 but not on the 21st.
All flights were with different crews so if the date is correct, the individuals in the photo would be hard to identify.
Maybe posing with "Shady Lady" that day because she was available at the time.

Re: Test
This probably isn 't going to help you, but it's ripping along just fine in Victoria at 18:00 local. Have had some slow down in the past few days (15 second loads - Shaw high speed).
Good luck

What did your "buddy" say when you questioned him about it ??
