Dagwood Cosh or Winnie Churchill?
On 28/07/1943 890 Squadron brought down at least one Bv138C. but who claimed it? Ray Sturtivant's FAAA 1939-1945 states it was SLt Johnnie Lowder and the senior pilot of 890, Dagwood Cosh... however Hank Adlam states that it was SLt Adrian Churchill who shared it with Lowder. He also seems to indicate 890 scored a second victory on that day or another, the claimant being Jack Parli. Lowder, Parli and Churchill later all made claims against Japanese aircraft flying Corsairs, but only Churchill makes it into TOE and no mention of this victory.
regards Keith
