Re: Do18 shot down 3 September 1941
I suspect the victors would have received an Mention in Despatches in 1941, this normally is awarded for a kill in the FAA. I am off to search the LG for awards in late 1941 and try to match up the names to pilots in 809 Squadron. Not an exact science but it's served pretty well to date
