Re: Spitfire Mk IX EN522

Alex

The only extra detail I could find was in Fighter Command War Diaries by Foreman. He states the aircraft was shot down by Flak near Vannes on a Rhubarb mission.

I in turn wonder why an aircraft belonging to a unit with ADGB was on a Rhubarb to France. I thought 2nd TAF was dealing with all offensive work by day at this stage, but obviously that is wrong.

Cheers
Stig
