Re: CC losses in early Apr 1943 over Biscay

Great!
Thanks a lot Martin!
So it seems to be a normal overclaiming case, but clearly the AA was effective and there might have been some anti-flak Beaus also because Whitley writes that on 10 Apr "Several of the DDs were shot up by the attacking a/c, incl. Z24, which suffered a number of killed and many wounded..." and Rohwer more exactly "Z24 has five dead and 31 wounded by cannon fire" so its is possible that there were also some Beau losses.
