    My second cousin Sgt Lorenzo Marfil No. 1893899 Born Lambeth London 1921 Died 1944 over the Netherlands was a flight engineer with the 75th. I would like to identify him on the group photo, but as I only have a photo of him as an eleven year old boy at my parents wedding. Do you have any idea where he is on the image please?
