[quote=TormodChristiansen]This attack could be related to the picture:

"March 27 1945.
Flight Lieutenant Yourg, while flying an armed patrol of the Utsire—Naze area came across, and attacked a freight train near Naerbo, strafing it with cannon and machine gun fire."[quote]

Tormod, I´m not so sure that this raid is what you are looking for. I´m pretty sure that "Yourg" is a misspelling and if so then this refers to Flight Lieutenant R.G. Young who was a Mosquito pilot in 248.

Interesting discussion.
