Re: serial nr. of 138 Sqn Wellington 17-18.12.42, lost on flight from Cairo to London?

Theo,

Not wishing to contradict Col, but the 104 Squadron ORB records that Wellington 'R' was hit by heavy flak and their front gunner received a shrapnel wound, whereas the wireless operator of 'A' had a machine gun wound in his thigh. It was noted too that flak was very heavy over Tunis, but slight at La Goulette.

Martin.
