SS BETSWOOD crew 'shot down' enemy aircraft

Hi guys

It seems that the crew of the British steamer SS Betswood claimed shooting down an attacking aircraft during a raid on Shoreham, and that three of the crew received awards. This may have happened in 1940.

I can't seem to find anything relevant on Google.

Any ideas?

Cheers
Brian
