882 Sqn Wildcat loss/claims 1944
Hi all,
A two part query…. I am seeking details (serial number etc) of an 882 Sqn Wildcat (HMS Searcher) shot down by AA fire over Southern France on 24 Aug 44. The pilot was Sub/Lt F.T. Sherborne RAN who was either rescued by the French or by HMS Royalist. Any further information about the mission and subsequent rescue would also be of interest. Apparently Sherborne may have been involved in a shared aerial claim around this time, possibly prior to Operation Dragoon? Once again any details or confirmation would be welcome. Thanks in advance Regards, Drew H
