Albacore BF777, 841 Sqn 03/08/43?
Hello everyone
Can anyone help me with individual code letter(s) for the above 841 Sqn Albacore, shot down by flak on August 3rd 1943 off Barfleur? The pilot, Sub-Lt (A) F. W. E. Dixon was killed, but his Observer, Sub-Lt F. R. Schofield was picked up by an RAF Walrus after 10 hours afloat in a dinghy. Many thanks. Regards, Simon

Hello Simon,
You may know that the Squadron Diary for 841 is at the National Archives, file reference ADM207/30. I have earlier entries from this diary but, sadly, not for that date. I will be surprised if that doesn’t contain the ID. If not, there may be another route. Hope this helps, Bruce
