Great work!

Nice sites

odd, why do most of these records, list the Allied pilots by just there last name, but then when known that a Nightfighter shot them down, will list the Germen pilot by his full name ?

This is not a squadron ORB, but it may be of interest. Bomber Command's 60th Anniversary web site has the campaign diary at the following site:

Royal Air Force Bomber Command 60th Anniversary Campaign Diary
http://www.raf.mod.uk/bombercommand/

(select “Diary” from top menu)

The site lists every operational sortie with the target; number of aircraft tasked and lost; and the results of the raids.

The material only gets on to the web if someone is willing to do the work of transcribing the documents and building a website to hold it. There is no financial reward so you are relying on someone having enthusiasm and the time. You may have to do the job yourself!
