RAMROD 753 to MALINES on 19 April 1944

[Marcellus]

Hi,
I am trying to reconstruct the live of Arnost MRTVY, a Czech pilot from 313 RAF Squadron who died in Belgium on 19.04.1944.
On that day, he was escorting B-26 bombers during a mission on the Malines Marshalling area which has been executed by bombers of 322 BG(M), 387 BG (M) and 394 BG (M) which is being refered to as RAMROD 753. I do not know if RAMROD 753 refers to Malines only, because B26.com reveals that at that same day Hasselt and Namur were targeted as well.
So far, the only reference on Ramrod 753 tells me that 7 Spitfires from 302 Polish Sqn flew to Bradwell Bay. Whether that was to link up with a Sqn or to reinforce a Sqn there or to put the escort package together, I do not know. Furthermore, Budil, another Czech pilot from 312 Sqn, was taken POW during the flight back. So, I am assuming that RAMROD 753 involved 312 Czech RAF Sqn as well.
As I would like to reconstruct his last day, I am trying to put all bits and pieces together from both the Bomber and the Fighter escort mission together.
So, if anybody out there could help me with details such as the escort and bomber Sqn involved, who provide front, high and low cover, timings, rendez-vous, headings, mission reports, incidents, etc I would be more then grateful.
Any other links and additional information such pictures, etc would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Marc
