Re: 1 March 43 Beaufighter crew claimed over North/Norwegian Sea a Ju 88
Hello Leo
Ross McNeill decyphered the CC position as 56 48n 02 48e, see http://www.rafcommands.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4854, so it is near the LW position. Thinking the accuracy of oversea navigation of the day IMHO it is very possible that the Ju 88 was victim of Sgt Vandewater. Of course it is impossible to be sure based only the meagre info I have.

Thanks a lot for your very valuable help
and thanks also to Laurent nd Chris
Juha
