Re: 21st April 1941 raid on Newark on Trent ( maybe )

Was just putting the idea out there , although at that time the area around were the bombing took place would have been quite rural to both sides of the Great North Rd. But I do think you are right , couldn't see any aircrew lasting long standing before the CO explaining why they had just "bombed" the neighbours. But as I said it had happened before in the area. Girton which lays between RAF Wigsley , Swinderby and Winthorpe did get damaged by an RAF plane jettisoning its bomb load into The Fleet flood plain of The Trent.
