Dear gents,

can anyone help me with informations about the mission of No. 617 Squadron on 19 April 1945 Target Heligoland and the crew of F/O Beaumont. Perhaps with a copy from the ORB page.

Thanks & regards,
Kaczmarek

Hi Kaczmarek,

This is the entry of the Beaumont crew:

F/Lt G. L. Beaumont
W/O Venton S. J.
W/O Gait, E. P.
F/Lt G. T. Allen
F/Sgt Street R. A. J.
Sgt Hagarty T.
Sgt May R. E.

Up 14.32 hrs
Down 19.32 hrs

Heligoland. 1732.16, 11,000 ft 1 x Tallboy. We had a slight undershoot to the left at the base of the cliff. We saw other bombs fall in the same place.

Regards,
