Re: Blenheim L9325
Thanks for the further info guys. Bruce, you mention 57 and 74 sqn as possible candidates..... but what about 229 sqn and 253 sqn? both are mentioned in Peter Cornwell's excellent book TBoFTaN as patrolling the Arras area on the date in question. Could they also be in the running? The Blenheim's crash location near Combles suggests that L9325 was probably engaged in the Arras area, based on the planned route of their sortie. I'm intrigued to know how this whole friendly fire element to the story got started? Would there have been an official inquiry conducted during or after the war?
A lot of questions I know. Where can we find the answers I wonder?? Regards, Lockehaven
