Pilot who shot-down V1 in Kent
I wonder if anyone can identify the pilot and squadron that shot down a V1 at 6am on June 24, 1944 that fell on to 6 Guards Tank Brigade REME Workshop at Newlands Stud Farm in Hurst Wood, Charing Heath near Lenham in Kent. The War Diary entry: "24 June (0600 hours) - V1 shot down by the RAF bounced off the flat roof of the riding school and landed amongst the Nissen huts. Casualties: 46 killed and 6 died of wounds; 1 officer and 20 other ranks seriously wounded; 7 Nissen huts destroyed; and damage to 14 vehicles and 16 motor cycles." Any help would be much appreciated; Tony
