Hi Natalie
I can't help with any id either, but you might like to look for newspaper archives, especially Duff's obituary (one was published in the Guardian 18 Aug 2000 & is available online, [www.guardian.co.uk]) I seem to remember it was also in the Times, but I haven't kept it.
The story features in many contemporary newspapers including the Times which you may be able to access on-line too - the relevant issue is dated 13 March 1944. The photo & cutting my dad had was from a different paper (the layout differs) but as the top of the page is missing I'm afraid I don't know which one. Its the same photo though.
Hope this helps.
regards
Vicky
