Seeking info on two BC losses night of 6-7 July 1940
Hello,
We're making good progress on our definitive EOE Data Base on all British a/c losses/damages/casualties for 1939-40. For the night of 6-7 July, 1940 we have the following two bombers lost from the British side. Does anyone know where the crash locations were? Are there any photos known to exist related to these incidents? Are a/c codes known for the Wellington? "Night of July 6-7, 1940 37 Squadron, Feltwell Wellington IC R3236. Lost during night sortie to Bremen, Germany. Last message plotted south-west of Borkum, NW Germany 00.55 a.m. F/O Douglas Weatherall Lindsay (Pilot), P/O Ralph Alan Anthony Ball (Observer), Sgt Alexander Aitken (WOp/AG), Sgt John Henry Waterfall DFM (WOp/AG), and Sgt Alexander Glen (AG) all killed. Aircraft a write-off. 102 Squadron, Driffield Whitley V N1523. Failed to return from night attack on Kiel dockyard, Germany. P/O Jack Maurice Lewis (Pilot), P/O Denis Frederick Murray MacKarness (2nd pilot), Sgt J. Fisk (Observer), Sgt L. Askham (WOp/AG), and Sgt S. Fieldhouse (WOp/AG) all captured. Aircraft DY*B a write-off." Regards, |
