RAF Mosquito Loss-Reported December 1,1943

[mhuxt]

I suspect LR428 was on 60 Sqn, SAAF. There was at least one casualty for that unit on 1 December 1943, as follows:


Name: LARTER
Initials: D H
Nationality: South African
Rank: Lieutenant (Obs.)
Regiment/Service: South African Air Force
Unit Text: 60 Sqdn.
Age: 27
Date of Death: 01/12/1943
Service No: 38232V
Additional information: Son of Douglas R. and Anna Larter, of Johannesburg, Transvaal, South Africa.
Casualty Type: Commonwealth War Dead
Grave/Memorial Reference: III. B. 26.
Cemetery: STAGLIENO CEMETERY, GENOA

Genoa is only 50 km away from Varzi, to the south, so seems a strong match.

I have no information on the other crew member.
