Re: German Activity in the Bay of Biscay November 7th/8th 1943

Hi Steve,

I've a note in Hector Bolitho Diary:

"Stirling aircraft which took off from RAF Bomber Command aerodrome to take part in mine laying operation near enemy coast, failed to return, and, nothing has since been heard from it or any of the crew. Message passed down to Coastal aircrew operating in area to keep a look out."

Date: 9th November 1943.

Regards

Andy Bird
