Re: I.D. for Wildcat flown by Digby Cosh, 881 Sqn, April 1944 against Tirpitz?
Hi all.
ADM 199/844 confirms that Cosh flew JV356 during operation Tungsten. No aircraft letter I'm afraid. ADM 199/840 has two combat reports from Act. Lieutenant Commander D. R. B. Cosh dated 12. February 1944. The first combat took place at 0945 hours and Cosh flew Wildcat Mk. V JV392/H. The enemy aircraft intercepted was reported to be a Ju 290. At 2000 hours (reported to be at night) Cosh flew Wildcat Mk. V JV375/V. This time the enemy was, quote: 4 to 5 He 177 (probably 2 Fw 200). All the best, Bengt |
