Re: May 3, 1943 - Amsterdam power station raid - 487 Sqn Venturas wiped out - was there an earlier fighter sweep?
One of the survivors of this raid was Leonard J. Littlewood of 43 Rothschild St., West Norwood, London. SE 27. He was a crew member of 487 Squadron Ventura AE731 EG-O shot down by Hauptman Wickop and crashed near Haarlem.
Littlewood was a POW with my father and I am hopeful that via this forum someone can provide a wartime photograph of him to add to my blog here. https://wallyswar.wordpress.com/other-pows/
