316 Squadron 28 February 1942

I found this entry in my notes...

28.02.1942 The 316 escorted Bleinheims over to Ostende. S/Ldr Gabszewicz was credited with one Bf109 probable. F/O Gorski KIA in the Channel’s waters.

I don't know where I noted it from so there's doubt when it appears nowhere else in the accounts but I have found in the past that sometimes these are the result of one error being repeated.

Even "The Polish Few" by Sikora which is, IMHO the best book on the Polish Air Force in exile in English that I have ever read, and which adorns my massive (my wife's opinion), or adequate with room for more... (my own opinion) library repeats the unsubstantiated Skalski claims of 8 November 1940.

regards

Keith
