Re: No. 1586 (Polish) Flight Night April 3/4 1944
Michal, it is supposed to be Halifax LW284 "T" with the crew:
Pilot - F/O Jan Dziedzic, II Pilot - F/Sgt Henryk Golebiowski, F/E - Sgt Jozef Zubrzycki, Nav. - F/O Antoni Blazewski, Disp. - F/Sgt Stefan Kulach, W.Op. - F/Sgt Jerzy Koper, A.G. - F/O Stefan Czekalski Take off was at 7.20 PM and return after 9 hours of flight. This info is taken from the book by Kajetan Bieniecki "Polskie załogi nad Europą 1942-1945" (Polish aircrews over Europe) which is very detailed summary of special operations made by 1586 (Polish) S.D. Flight over occupied Europe (except Poland). In addition to above mentioned sortie another 8 crews were sent to drop supplies to Poland that night. Those crews are enlisted in another book by Bieniecki as well. I hope that it may be of help. Gregory |
