Re: Losses of 18 Squadron in Malta in November-December 1941.
I have 3+3 Blenheim's of No. 107 and N0 18 Sqn attacking Argostoli on 11 Dec, with107 constituting the first wave. No 107 ORB. No mention of losses. There is one 18 Sqn Flt. Lt. and two 18 Sqn Sergeants who died on 11 Dec 1941 and who are buried in Phaleron CWGC, FltLt. Edwards (RNZAF), Sgt. Mills, and Sgt. Hedin. No other 18 Sqn casualties for the day. So it appears one plane only lost with crew KIA.

On 12 Dec shipping search 3 Blenheim No. 107. No incidents.

Another raid by 6 Blenheim of No. 107 on 13 December, two a/c lost, Sgt. Lee and Sgt. Gracey.

All the best

Andreas
