Re: Lancaster W4948 shot down over Driby on night of 22/23rd Sep 43
Many thanks,
yesterday I met Bert Cherrington, shot down Sep '43 by Meister over his base as he was coming into land; he and another were the only 2 to survive. He came to look at the Lancaster and RAF Coningsby and share his experiences and logbook. He had no idea who or what had shot them down. This was his 5th Op, later he went on to 617 Sqn and flew on the Tirpitz missions.
