Hi Brian
Yes, I got the Squadron ORB but it makes no reference to what we now call friendly fire. I've emailed the National Archives to see if they can shed any light on the comment on the bottom of the letter my uncle received. I don't know if there would have been an inquest with the airmen dying in England so I've emailed the Plymouth Archives office to see if they can help on that score. I'll keep you posted. The crew was:
Pilot Officer Geoffrey Ernest Robertson, age 25
Sergeant Dudley Howard Harris, age 20
Sergeant Denis Roy Simpson, age 26
Sergeant Peter Edward James Jenkins, age 22
Sergeant Lawrence Henry Nicholson, age 21
Sergeant Frank Sidney Clarke, age 25
Sergeant Cecil Jacques Bond, age 19
I've produced a booklet of remembrance for the crew which the Mildenhall Register have kindly put on their website. It can be found here:
