Re: Beaufighter vs ship Embla, April 1944

Merci Guy

Even if Beaufighter were ordered to sink everything found, they should have been warned of the presence of Red Cross ships in the area. At least in theory, even if they apparently attacked them four times in some weeks.

There was probably diplomatic protest about these attacks, but I wonder if these go down to the Beaufighter Wing or squadrons.

And I still wonder what is the cause of the loss of both Beaufighter. They were certainly not shot down by Red Cross gunners !!

Bonne journée
