Hi Peter,

thanks for the reply. I've worked extensively with the Interception Tactics Reports, and while some info is available on claims, it is only a summary of original, unassessed claims. The monthly Supplemenatry Narratives were issued around 15 days after the end of the month (whereas the IT Reports were issued a few days after the raid in question), and are the only document containing a list of claims accepted by BC HQ.

For my own area od research, the Supplementary Narratives often have the only information on claims because Bomber Command combat reports for non-Mosquito units for the 1945 period were mostly either not preserved in AIR 50, or have been stolen from the archive.

You are right that some of the missing Supplementary Narrative reports may be buried in some file, but I have yet to discover them. There are still a few relevant files I haven't checked, but I'm not hopeful.

Cheers

Rod
