Re: Pilots of No.152 Sqn .
My reference to this claim is: FC3; CR: Air 50/163-7&8, 17; 152 Sqn ORB (at 0915). Timestamp for the claim is at 0832. Possibly the 152 Sqn claim should be considered a separate claim for a different aircraft, but if so I can find credit given for only one daylight claim on this date.
FC3 (Fighter Command Combats and Casualties) shows a credit to 2 Spitfire Vb of 504 Squadron for one Ju 88 destroyed, between 0810 and 0930, with no casualties, off Gormanston. It also shows one casualty, a Spitfire Cat E, F/O K Sawiak, crashed in Eire, to 315 Squadron, between 0751 and 0930. I do not see any later amendments for this date.
Enjoy!
Frank.
