Circumstances of loss of 311 Squadron Wellington L7788, 23/24.9.1940

Dear all,

Who can confirm that 311 Squadron Wellington L7788 was hit in one of its engines over Berlin (port or starboard?), causing the aircraft to force-land near Leidschendam at 04.25 hrs on 24 September 1940? Was there any other Flak damage to the aircraft?

Cheers and thanks, Theo

(I'm aware of Bart Rijnhout's book on the topic but at present can't locate my copy in my library).
