Re: British bomber loss over Germany on 17.08.40
Laurent,

You obviously have a lot of British bomber loss info. My photo wouldn't be the fourth one, and the 1st one we already know about so it could be any of the others. Are you familiar enough with any of these that if I sent you a photo of this you might be able to make determine anything due to camouflage pattern or other characteristics?

Regards

Larry,
Correct...serial indeed R3174 (correct in my file but typo in my thread.. apologize). Happens often to this "old man".
Other OJ-A for 1940:
27/28-8-1940 - Frenschluneberg near Freren N of Rheine (Germany) - P9272, and
19/20-11-1940 - Lssingstrasse 27, corner Gothastrasse in Glasow, District Teltow - (Germany) - N2774.
Regards,
Henk.

There it happened again....
N2774 Lssingstrasse should read Lessingstrasse (strasse = street).
