Re: Help from any Norwegians...

Hi Alex and Kyrre,

I found some more info regarding Circus 201...

Target was Abbeville (home of the infamous "Abbeville Boys") with 12 RAF Bostons from 2 Group and fighters from 9 squadrons (121 sorties flown). Rendezvous was at 14:30 with the pilots from 331 and 332 acting as target support.

The RAF claimed 11 destroyed, 1 probable and 5 damaged for the loss of 10. The Bostons only achieved strikes on the north-eastern dispersal of the target.

Tim.
