Re: Identify Wellington Bomber
Hello,
This Wellington incident sounds very much like the following loss mentioned in 2TAF3/432
24 February 1945
No.69 Sqn.
Wellington XIII NC604
Op: Visual recce, read Wassenberg - Maasniel
T/o. 2115
Shot down (e.2210) by Af (?)*, north-east of Hasselt.
Sgt W. H. Marshall +
Sgt J . C. Monaghan +
Sgt W. E. Davies +
Sgt L. Larkin
Sgt W. E. Reading (ORB quotes surname as Readman)
* The authors quote this abbreviation as; Af = Airfield.
The timing, location and casualties seem to match the aforementioned incident. Date is a bit of a worry.
Any thoughts?
Col.
