Re: USAAF loss supposedly July/August 1942 northern Germany

Frankie / Rolland. All VIIIBC missions (apart from 3BW B-26s which were VIII Air Service Cmd.) in Aug. 1943 were France, Netherlands or Central-S. Germany; only 3 to Northern Germany in July:


25 July (Mission 76) Hamburg (15 B-17 missing), Kiel (4 missing).
26 July (Mission 77) Hannover (16 B-17 missing), Hamburg (2 missing).
29 July (Mission 79) Kiel (6 B-17missing). Warnemunde (4 missing).



There were several missions to Emden and Wilhelmshaven in 1943, Jan., Feb., May., Sept., Oct., & Dec.

On 21 May (Mission 60) a B-17 (4th Wing) ditched off the north coast from Emden after the crew bailed out but they were all listed as MIA.
