54 Sqn 6 May 41

Sqn Ldr F S Stapleton and Sgt J W Panter were damaged in combat this day, both crash-landed as a result. Any ideas as to the serials of what they were flying and where they came down? Stapleton was at Dover around 1330hrs

I have Stapleton in P7284/R.

Thanks John. Looks like damage was not too bad?:
