Hi David:

The RAF Bomber Command History site says 46 Mossies attacked Kassel on 27/28 September, so there's a possibility the bombs fell as part of an 8 Group spoof for the main force raid to Kaiserslautern.

The Mosquito fighter claims for that evening seem to have been south of Kassel, down around Stuttgart and Frankfurt.

Cheers,

Mark

Cheers Mark

Could any of the Mosquitos have been fighter bombers sent to attack Kassel a/f ?

I have sent you a message via this board as my PC crashed big time, please can you contact me via e-mail.

Regards

David
