TB-1 shot down by Finns 22 October 1942

Hi guys

I'm seeking further information on this incident, please.

I believe the TB-1 was being used as a 'mail plane' flying between Archangel and Leningrad, when the crew became disorientated in bad weather and ended up in Finnish airspace. It was shot down and all six crew killed.

Are the identities of the crew known?

Cheers
Brian
