Re: V-1 claim by F/L "Duke" Warren

Bruce was Duke I, Douglas Duke II. Bruce was killed in a flying accident after the war. Douglas's autobiography makes no mention of shooting down a V1 only that Rolf Berg was shot down & killed on 3 Feb 45?

Re: V-1 claim by F/L "Duke" Warren

Thanks Bruce and Chris. Given the evidence, or lack thereof, available, I'm inclined to believe that the report of this claim is in error.

Cheers,
Tom

Re: V-1 claim by F/L "Duke" Warren

If you put a post on http://www.rafcommands.com/ headed something like "Warren brothers RCAF" then Hugh Halliday is likely to come by, he checks in fairly frequently and he has done a great deal of research on RCAF/Canadian pilots. Chris Thomas got most of the material for the 2TAF claims and losses tables from 2TAF daily/weekly command documents eg daily op sum
