Re: Which RAF Squadron dropped SOE agent Tazelaar
Hello all,


I might be missing something but Rene alias Mystex asked which aircraft dropped Tazelaar in the night of 1/2 November 1944. The answers given refer to droppings in the night of 18/19 November and SD units operating on 31st October 1944...


According to my info BBO agents Tazelaar and Faber were dropped in Operation Criena 2 by a Stirling of 620 Sqdn.RAF, flown by a F/S Kay. Agent Barme was dropped in the same night during Operation Rummy 21, another Stirling of 620 Sqdn.RAF flown by a F/O Russell. Unless Tazelaar and Faber returned soon to the UK - not likely from the occupied Netherlands - it seems unlikely that both men were dropped again in the night of 18/19 November 1944.


Best regards, Marcel
