Re: 218 SQUADRON CREW LIST 14-05-40
Hi Malcolm
From Battle of France-then and Now,P Cornwell there are accounts of 5 218 Sqn Losses and a note that positive evidence of 5 more has not so far been found.
Attacking bridge at Wadelincourt
P2360 P/O R T Butting and AC1 W C Waterston both MIA no 3rd crew member reported
L5422 F/O J F R Crane KIA, AC1 T W Holloway POW
L5232 P/O W A R Harris baled out burned, Sgt N B Herriot and AC1 W Robinson KIA
Bouilon-Gavonne road
L5235 Bf 109 attack, belly landed P/O A M Irvine POW LAC A J Taylor POW, died of wounds
P2324 F/O D A J Foster and AC1 T J Bryan both POW
It seems from the book that Battles did not always fly with a 3rd crew member
Regards
Dick
