Re: LtCdr Richard Bigg-Wither 1841 Squadron

I have this as on July 30, 1945 at 0630 hours, Wakasa Wan area.
References: ADM 199/1478 (Formidable Log), which does not name the pilot; A Formidable Commission, pg 112 (as Kate).

I have another claim for a Dinah at 1823, Maizuru. Reference: unrecorded ADM 199 ref (Victorious Log), also without any names.

Both of these are also found in ADM 199/1478, as the reports on the Operations of 28th and 30th July 1945. ADM 199/1478 is a large bound volume. I seem to remember the Logs as being small paper documents, similar to the blue test booklets from college (in the US).

Enjoy!

Frank.
