Re: HP Hampden P4321 of 49 Sqn
P4321 EA-T
No information on the time of arrival but the delay in return was due to instrument problems over the target area - the target being Cologne.
Crew - P/O evans, Sgt Parrish, P/O Halls and Sgt Davies.

BTW I do not believe that the Evans of teh above incident is the same one who was shot after the Great Escape. Though the initials of the first Evans is not recorded in the book, the latter Evans was a F/Lt at the time he was shotdown. Highly unlikely someone would have skipped two ranks within a week.
