Digby Cotes-Preedy 236 Sqn 1940
Hi guys
A mystery man!
Apparently, according to his logbook, he claimed a Bf109 shot down off Le Havre while flying a Blenheim of 236 Squadron. If this is correct, might his air gunner have been Plt Off Colin Chrystall, a New Zealander who was credited with a Bf109 0n his first operational flight with 236 Squadron, circa July 1940?
Cotes-Preedy also claimed two Ju87s damaged on 23 July 1940.
These claims do not appear in 236 Squadron's records, as far as I know.
Any information welcomed.
Cheers
Brian
