RAMROD 753 to MALINES on 19 April 1944

[Marcellus]

Stephen,

just to provide you with an update. I was lucky getting through to the USAAF archives in Washington. They provided me with the mission reports from the 19 April 1944 mission to Malines Marshalling yards.
According to these reports, a total of 182 bombed the target area.
36 B-26 from 322 BG
38 B-26 from 391 BG
38 B-26 from 394 BG
34 B-26 from 386 BG
36 B-26 from 387 BG
If you are interested I can send you these through PM.
In particular the narrative report from 391 BG mentioned a Spitfire being shot down with the pilot parachuting out. From area, distance and timing, this is almost certainly Arnost Mrtvy.
As I have the timings and altitude of the Rendez-Vous with Spitfire escort for most of the BGs, I would like to fill the gap with some kind of Operational Records from 2 TAF or the respective escort Sqn's side.
Any help or assitance you can give me with this? Somewhere, somehow?

Marc
