Re: F/O Francis Richard Lee Mellersh 1105145

Hello,

Re Mellersh's V-1 claims on 7/8 August 1944:

Night 7/8 August (1944).

Flt Lt "Togs" Mellersh borrowed Spitfire IX MH473 from the Night Fighter Development Wing at Ford to try his luck - and shot down two Divers. He then shot down two more while flying his usual Mosquito.

No.96 Squadron (Mosquito XIII) Ford.

F/L F R L Mellersh - Spitfire IX MH473 - V-1 - 2210-0030
---------------------- Spitfire IX MH473 - V-1 - 2210-0300
---------------------- Mosquito MM577:ZJ-N - V-1 - 0455 - Channel
---------------------- Mosquito MM577:ZJ-N - V-1 - 0503 - Channel
