Boston losses 31.10.1942

Hi all,

Does anyone have any information concerning the loss of a Boston to fighters on 31.10.42 in or around the Comines area about midday? Looking for aircraft codes, crew, fate, etc. Any details would be most welcome.

regards

Adam

Hello,

I think that two RAF Bostons were lost this date, have not looked for any USAAF.
RAF a/c were W8297 ( On the ground ) and Z2179, ( F/O. Henry P. Collings ) both I think were from 88 Sqdn.
Another, Z2224 ( F/O Donald K. Hulme ) also of 88 Sqdn was lost on the 1st Nov.
