Re: 17/18 January 1943.

Adriano, hi! (or should that be Bom Noche?)

I'm beginning to realise that OF-L could have fallen victim to any one of at least six attacks. I suspect we are working from the same information, by which I mean Tony Wood's site, which lists six aircraft as 'In see.' I suppose our crew could have fallen victim to any one of those attacks.

Unfortunately, I do not have an actual route used to Berlin that night, nor do I have a time over the target. In fact the last known position I have for OF-L is taking off from Woodhall Spa at 17:03.

Because the body of Sgt. Brittain was not discovered until April 9th, I suspect we may be on something of an impossible task here. There is absolutely no way of knowing when Sgt. Brittain entered the water or even whether he parachuted out of the aircraft.

All I can say is that any help is most welcome as is any advice.

Thanks for taking the time to help, it really is appreciated. If you have any further ideas or thoughts please let me know.

Warmest Regards,

Kevin.
