According to The Bomber Command War Diaries by Middlebrook and Everitt, 10 Venturas in fours and twos carried out low-level raids to Holland. 3 aircraft lost. These raids might have been in support of the 14 Wellingtons and 5 Lancasters on cloud-cover raids to Essen, Osnabruck and Wilhelshaven and 12 Bostons who bombed an airfield near Caen, France.

I know it does not offer much...
