Re: Kirkenes/Petsamo
Cheers Mark,
I have found that the commander of 809 Sqn was VC Grenfell not VC Campbell as I originally thought, and that the total claims for the Fleet Air Arm were 2-0-0 Bf110, 1-1-0 Bf109, and 1-0-1 Ju87. Actual losses admitted by Lufwaffe sources were for a Bf110 and a Ju87.
Albacores made 1-1-1 claims, the Bf109 probable was shot down by a rear gunner who was killed on this date.
