Hello,
I am also in possession of a diary which says:
19 november 1943: About 200 Phosphor bombs fell in the Valkenhuizen area at Arnhem. Valkenhuizen = NNE of Arnhem
Also bombs near Rozendaal Castle.

Alan: How many a/c unloaded their bombs on a Dutch town?
The Whole 385 Bomb Group or one or two Bomb Squadrons?
