Re: What happened to 601 Sqn on 6 Sept 1940 at 9.30 am?
Hello Gerry
thanks a lot for the scan! So at least some 109s bounced the sqn from behind. And interestingly the report gives Davis' rank as F/O while both Leslie Hunt in his Twenty-one Sqns and the BoB T & N Mk V say that he was a F/Lt. But the report named as the second F/Lt Robinson. His position is given as Yellow 1, IIRC usually the leader of A Flight was Red 1 and the leader of B Flight was Blue 1. Maybe the FC was not as rigid as I think. Have you any explanation on this F/Lt question? Thankfully Juha |
