Re: 603 Sqn. Claim on 29 Nov. 1940

Hello,
What is your reference that P/O Rafter was killed before the E/A was engaged ?
Reason for asking is that in the Tony Woods file it has Spitfire II, P7449 Cat 3 Return fire.
This to me suggests that the engagement with the enemy a/c had begun before P/O Rafter was shot down.
The claim made was as you say a DO17Z some 8 sea miles E of Ramsgate.
I assume that later information confirmed it to be an ME110
Thanks
Alex
