ToT 12 Squadron during 8-9.10.1943 Hannover raid

Dear all,

I am looking for the ToT of 12 Squadron during the 8-9 October 1943 Hannover raid, and additional info on the loss of 12 Squadron Lancaster JB406 during the Hannover raid. I have the crew details and crash location at Essel, north of Hannover, a/c was reportedly shot down by a night fighter, but need to know the time of the crash.

Cheers and thanks, Theo
