Re: 812 sqn Swordfishes in the Petsamo raid?
A quick look in Sturtivant has dredged up five aircraft linked to 812 Sq in July 1941.
P4277 (C) 812 7/41
V4375 to 812 7/41
V4380 (G) to 812 7/41
V4384 812 Sq accident Cat Y 18/7/41
V4389 crashed on Petsamo raid 30/7/41 S/L Rideal unhurt POW? Possibly S/L CJK Kindell intended but no Swordfish lost?
There may be more but my eyes are a little sore from a cold so I'm calling a halt here. I'll look again another time.
