The man near him could be the flight engineer. I'll check for confirmation.

Yes Bob Giffin was the pilot in his crew and he was the captain or skipper. The letters "P/O" would indicate the rank of Pilot Officer, F/O - Flying Officer, F/L- Flight Lieutenant, S/L- Squadron Leader etc. I believe Bob was a F/O at the time and Buck Bennet the bomb aimer (on Bob's left) was a P/O then.
