Re: Beaufighter Claims; convoy UGS 37 11/04/44
153 Squadron claimed four. A Do-217 between 2310 and 2317 by F/Sgt B H M Smith+F/O F G Bennett, 20 m N of Dellys. A Ju-88 at 2350 by S/Ldr R L Wade+W/O J W Sanders, 40 m N of Dellys. A Ju-88 at 2354 by F/O H S Boardman+F/Sgt J R Mordan, 18 m NW of Dellys. And a Ju-88 at 0020 by Boardman+Mordan, 6 m to sea, N of Dellys. Combat reports for these are in Air 27/1031, frames 87 to 90, and 92.
I do not have any claims for 108 Sqn between Sept 1943 and May 1944. It is possible that I missed them.
Frank.
