Re: 269 Squadron Hudson combats July 1940

There appears to be a bit of confusion. According to 'The Other Few' this combat took place on 22 July & another combat on 23 Jul which resulted in a Do 18 being damaged. According to the CC Instum, these combats occurred on 23 Jul in PCGR 5824 and TCTA 0050 respectively. D/224 Sqn also had an inconclusive combat in YCTA 0000. The Other Few said that the combat on 23 Jul also resulted in the Hudson being damaged-this was more likely M/269 Sqn which damaged a Do 18 0415 hrs 24 Jul 40 in XZWT 3200 & then 15 mins later, V/269 Sqn reported an inconclusive meeting with a Do 18 in XZTA 1014. Suggest you get hold of the 269 Sqn ORB!
