Searching more info on two German losses, March 1941

[Stig Jarlevik]

I know Laurent

But I am one of those guys who wants the whole Monty. Pitty that Midlands stopped publishing their "losses" books. I believe Ross must feel pretty let down by them as most probably both David Gunby and Pelham Temple are.

However what would be equally interesting is a day-by-day listing of what some say was the Cinderella service, the Coastal Command and its activities. They deserve a better memory than what so far has been given.

And I can't ask Chris and Ross to write a private book to me could I? I would then look down the bore of the deadly fortyfour of Chris.... (sorry Lorne Greene, just couldn't resist that one )

Cheers
Stig

Hi
I don't know if it is of any help, and unfortunately I don't have access.
But when at the PRO/NA many years ago there was a series of files called the 'games list' basically listed claims and losses for each day,(but not raf bombers)
Maybe someone on the board can help more.
cheers

Of interest, some years ago, I copied out details of all CC combats with enemy ac in the CC Intelligence Summaries held by the AHB (i.e those ac which met no necessarily shot down an ac but the CC ac got back afterwards). It would give date, sqn, ac code (later), pilot's name (later), type, time and location. I did not copy out the precis of the report. Thus if Hudson P/224 Sqn had an inconclusive combat with a Ju 88 at xxxx hrs in location xxxx I would have the details. I cannot comment on how complete these summaries are though
