looking for info/pics of "Lancaster" # ED 913 UL-U2 of 576. Squadron.
 

Hi,
the Lancaster ED 913 UL-U2 of the 576. Squadron was shot down in the night of the 23/24th December 1943 near the village of Altkuenkendorf, Germany. Official records quote Cranienburg (Oranienburg?) but this is an mistake. The FO (Flying Officier/Pilot) John Henry RICHARDS and the rest of the crew members died, except Sgt. G. EVANS who escaped with a parachute and was taken as a POW later on. Where can I find informations about the crew, the plane and fotos of the crew? Also did Evans ever got back to the UK and described what happened? Where can I access action or after action reports of the raid that night?
Thanks for your help.

But check the info on that site carefully, there are many errors!

You'll find some information about ED 913 if you log in to google and enter the terms (I'm numbering the lines) (1) Milburn (2) Lancaster ED913 (3) Rothbury.

If I can be of additional help, please let me know.
