Re: Mosquito shot down on 3 March 1943

I can confirm that this was the only loss on that day off Norway. Details from Bomber Command War Diary.

Only additional information that I have is that the rad was led by W/C Shand DFC, a low level attack on the molybdenum mines at Knaben in Norway. This precision raid was rated as being highly successful.
