Re: 2nd raid - Palace Hotel, Torquay, Devon 30 December 1942
6 Fw 190s of 10 (Jabo). JG 2 hit Exeter (thinking it was Newton Abbot) at 1020 hrs on 30 Dec 42 while 10 (Jabo)/JG 26 did the same at Bexhill. I have no actual attack on Torquay and the only attack which hit the Palace Hotel I have as 1108 hrs on 25 Oct 42. They did drop 5 bombs on 30 Dec 42 and no mention of a 6th but flew out over Paignton/Torquay but made no mention of attacking anything on the way home and the only deaths were at Exeter.
