Hurricane raids on Dodecanese 1943
Hi guys
I read recently that Hurricanes from 127, 213 and 274 Squadrons carried out raids against the Dodecanese Islands in late 1943. Can anyone confirm this. Cheers Brian |

I have nothing about Hurricanes over Dodecane but 93 Libya-Based Hurricanes took part on operation "Thesis" against Creete on 23 July 1943.

Re: Hurricane raids on Dodecanese 1943
Hi Brian,
213 Sq operating from Cyprus were active over Castelrosso from October 1943 and claimed Ju.88's over this Island on 18th October, 1 each by F/Lt.H R Rowlands, P/O. R Jackson and W/O. P C Haslam ( Haslam's being 213's 200th Kill). I will post you some items relevant to this soon. Cheers Bruce |
