Re: Lt.-Cmdr Allen Burgham, No. 835 Squadron
Hello Keith,
Burgham's log reads two Junkers 88s on Feb 10. His own account to me verbally was that the second one was smoking when it disappeared into clouds. But it was the weather that was the greatest enemy on that convoy out to Murmansk and back. Lowest barometric pressure readings by the met office during the entire war. They exist at a military club in London as evidence of the amazing weather. It was for that that so many of his squadron received Dinstinguished Service Crosses
