Re: eBay: Allied intrest
Quote:
T3324 was clearly 'N', so T4836 must then have been coded 'S' However the authors of MAW 2 have chosen to state this loss happened on the 9th (not the 10th) So did Jim Halley in his RAF T1000 - T9999 booklet. The losses are not mentioned in the text anywhere, so no help there. Can someone conclusively say if the 9th or 10th is the correct date? Cheers Stig

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
Hi all,
post 1313 link 1-3 - looks like capture of single person) - on the 1 photo, there is date 27.6.1941 - from this date, I have 2 captured fighter pilots from Circus 25 - both from 74.SQ: P/O W.J. Sandman Spitfire W3120 - there are photos of his crashlanded machine P/O C.G. Hilken Spitfire W3252 Is possible, that on the photos is one from them? Maybe Sandman: Sandman photo: https://www.aucklandmuseum.com/war-m...record/C122150 Hilken: http://www.bbm.org.uk/airmen/as-hilken.htm Faenor

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
hi
#1315 Good shot Faenor; to confirm this lead that seems serious, knowing the size of Sandman could definitely confirm that it is him ; does anybody know ? In the last book La Luftwaffe en France 1939-1945, tome 1 (Arès, 2020) by Jean-Louis ROBA we have page 192 these infos from Claims by Flak on coastal side ; on 27/06/1941 : A Spit shot down at 12h30 following shots by "Batterie Lapin" and another one at 12h22 by "Batterie Prinz Eugen".

http://www.aircrewremembered.com/san...rren-john.html There is photo of Sandman Spit W3210 ZPoN - but the right photo is this machine, clearly is visible, that serial number started with letter P and not with W - but who is this guy? it is Fl./Lt. Sandman? Can somebody check info and photos for this action in the book Fighter Commands Air War, 1941: RAF Circus Operations and Fighter Sweeps (O have no access now to this book:-( ) Based on the short info, there is photo of Sandman and Hilken. Faenor
