Teunis,
I thought I would check the usual RAF background and soon found Stirling EH937 of 90 squadron and it's crew.
More searching found your remarkable efforts - (at the risk of your blushes), readers might like to visit:

Thank you for the wonderful remembrance that your nation shows to our airmen . It is very much appreciated.
Jones' service number suggests a 1940 call-up.
Lets hope your posting might connect to a family member.
