Re: EBC Convoy Attacks June 1944
I have a copy of the transcript taken during the Findings of the Board of Inquiry into the sinking of HMS Boadicea that took place on the 24/06/1944. Statements from the 12 surviving crew members confirm that the Boadicea was sunk by a single torpedo striking her forward magazine. The lone JU88 dropped two torpedoes the second detonated in the wake of the Boadicea.
Further information available upon request.
I would be interested in any information that is available about JU88 squadrons/operations or specific aircraft that were operating at the time as I am compiling the history of this particular ship.
Many thanks.
Mike
