Re: Whitley P4986 Aug17,1940 loss - Searching Crew Information

I got the information that these bombs are 4.5-inch Reconnaissance Flare Mk4 and it seems that this crew as in the role as a pathfinder - so expecially the navigator and the pilot where well experienced. This could cover the german newspaper article which claims that it was the second bomber of the group who had passed peine that night.
Meanwhile I`ve got the certificate of birth from Peter D. Salmon who was born near Liverpool but my letters to the todays Salmon families results no positive reply.
