Re: Guy Gibson Hampden incident

Hi BC (or what entity may be behind these initials/abbreviation)

According to the Operations Record Book of 83 Squadron:

Hampden L4070

22.15-05.25 hrs

F/O Gibson
P/O Withers
P/O Watson
AC McCormack

Target A.8 at Hamburg attacked successfully. During the dive a balloon cable hit the stbd. wing causing damage to slat. Landed at Abingdon owing to fog at base.

Regards,
Hans
