Mosquito - Friendly Fire? 25 June 1943
Can anyone confirm/add to the details I have relating to a 488 Sqn Mosquito flown by Wg Cdr Haine when it was said to have been shot down in error by an American aircraft? Is this correct? Sources I have seen (have not looked at the ORB yet) state that the crash was on Brighton Beach, another source states The Crumbles, Eastbourne (now the site of a marina/shopping centre). Whilst I have all Police reports for East & West Sussex this does not include the Borough's of Hastings, Eastbourne, Brighton and Worthing who all had their own Police forces. Therefore, I have no local reports to access.
I am confident someone will have the detail I seek! |
