Re: Russian use of Handley Page Hampdens
Diary extract from Jack D:
Days grow shorter, boredom set in. Headquarters taking time to arrange our return. Eventually decided to hand over the 23 Hampdens to Russian Navy. also Grant [Lindeman] interviewed on BBC upon our return: 'He was asked if he had enjoyed the visit to Russia and he replied 'if the opportunity comes for us to return to Russia again, we would gladly stand aside and allow someone else to go.' Footnote: This was broadcast live and did not impress the RAF Top Brass. Regards Andy Bird
