Re: Loss of 487 Sqn Mosquito 13 March 1944
Thanks very much gentlemen!
My problem in finding Herbouville was due to a spelling error in the original text of my source. I deduced that P/O Barriball was the pilot as he was lost on the same day and the fact that they were crewmates in a Ventura (AE846) take off accident at No.34 OTU Pennfield Ridge Jan 18 1943. They would have been good mates having been together for 14 months. David's sister told me that some members of 487 Sqn visited their parents after the war. David was an Aussie (RAAF) and Malcom was a Kiwi..
Thanks again for your help.
