Loss of 12 Squadron Lancaster W4366, 13-14 May 1943
 

Dear all,

I am looking for any info about the loss of 12 Squadron Lancaster W4366 during the 13-14 May 1943 Bochum raid. Four of the crew survived; was the aircraft shot down by Flak, and is it correct that the aircraft crashed at Scherlebeck?

Cheers and thanks for any info, Theo
