Charles Robert Edwards 617 Goodwill tour USA/Canada 1947

[NFB Photos]

I have been left some belongings from a distant relative Charles Robert Edwards. In his belonging are photos, a 1947 Diary, his medals and other bits that I am still sorting through. One of the photos is a Squadron photo for the 1947 Goodwill tour to America. I have noticed on this site several post on this tour and I am looking for any help I can get to research this.
I was told by a closer relative who passed the item onto me to destroy his belongings if I could not make use of them. I find this attitude criminal. For someone who served his country I feel I must find out as much as I can about Bob. (This is how he was known by family)
Bob passed away 14^th May 2019.

Thanks

Nick

Have this week discovered the very same photograph whilst clearing my late parents attic.
Dad, Gordon (Bob) Gregory, born 1921 was a pilot on this tour & I recall him talking about the trip when I was a small child.
Thrilled to make this discovery & certain there are more gems to discover. Have already found two Squadron photo's when he dis a conversion course on B29's at Marham in 1950.
Also found some photo's & 83 Squadron Crest from when Dad flew Lancasters out of Hemswell.
