1075 is RAF Exeter I believe

Thanks Chris,

Problem solved then.

There is nothing on the TM3 (GB) document for Exeter airfield.

So, I did not miss it this time....

Many thanks

Chris, thanks again for identifying Exeter.

Here are three more that I am trying to identify from another section of the same Einzelmeldung.

1 Do 17 of 3./ (F) 31 (start 15:04 hrs.) for reconnaissance
of targets 10 215, 10 269, 10 880 with photographs.

Cannot see anything in my copy of TM3 (GB) - Target Negative List.

I suspect that one of these is St Mary's airfield on the Isles of Scilly given that part of the sortie photographed the radio station there and identified that it had not been destroyed.

Any help much appreciated.
