Re: 12 sqn RAF on 26th of march 1942
Wow, many thanks for this piece of information Peter.
I stumbled upon W/C Golding´s grave a few days back while visiting the War Cemetery in Bergen and was quite amazed to find a Wing Commander between all the graves. The entire crew is burried next to him. I wondered what their story was.
Just finished a book about Nightfighters over Holland in which Zur Lippe Weisenfeld is often described. A cruel coincidence to read that he was responsible for their deaths.
Zur Lippe Weisenfeld claimed 4 bombers in total that night, it earned him his Knights Cross.
Thanks again
