V-1 kills by 66 Squadron
I read in "Tattered battlements" that SLdr HAS Johnston destroyed a V-1 in 19 June 1944, but did 66 score any other V-1 kills?

Keith

Re: V-1 kills by 66 Squadron
Hi Keith

Checking that excellent account 'Diver, Diver, Diver', I can find no reference to a V1 claim by Johnstone or any other 66 Squadron pilot!

Perhaps the author missed that one?

Cheers
Brian

Interesting. According to Johnston it blew up!

Re: V-1 kills by 66 Squadron
Looking back in the forum archives it appears FLt Douglas Warren shot down a V-1 on 3 February 1945.

Hi Keith

Looks like the author of 'Diver, Diver, Diver' failed to check 66 Squadron's records!

Cheers
Brian
