I just wik'd Commander F. N. Cook RAN. It's right. I checked a few of the links in case one was wrong.

I seem to remember a poster here's dad did the recon photos for this mission?

Well done, deserves a mention, from his profile.
In memory of Flt Lt Tony Hill who, on 5 December 1941, at the request of Doctor R V Jones, successfully photographed a small "Würzburg radar" at Bruneval on the French coast. This from a height of only 200 ft, at high speed, under fire and from a camera mounted obliquely behind the cockpit.
