Re: Lancaster L7543 EM-Z

I read some reports from the participants of this rally. Only two crews mention the loss of one of the Lancasters, here is one of them:
R5552P F / Sgt F.M.Falls, Sgt R.E.Manvell (F / Eng), F / O T.Blair, F / Sgt R.S.Canham, P / O F.L.Austin, Sgts W.Mather, D.F.Charming. Up 1641 Down 0306. Bomb load 4 x 1000lb RDX. Low cloud to the goal. The city is surrounded by a 3,000-foot map reading, reducing to 2,000 points to bombard a definite area. Four explosions and one big fire on the coast. Concentration of headlights and heavy and light guts over the target. Navigation on the return turned out to be very successful due to the shortage of gasoline. One plane shot down over the target.

I think it was Miller's crew
