Hi Alex

The only mission to Brux recorded in the Bomber Command War Diaries was on 16/17 January 1945:

"231 Lancasters and 6 Mosquitoes of 1 and 5 Groups attacked this synthetic oil plant in Western Czechoslovakia. The raid was a complete success. Speer also mentioned this raid as causing a particularly severe setback to oil production. 1 Lancaster lost."
