Re: Hurricane downed in Med.
Hello,
From 73 Squadron Part 2 by Don Minterne. pages 223 -5. Sgt. Cyril Edwards in HW242 9th July 1943. Rescue was down to a Baltimore or a Maryland. Fished out by an American PBY from Kalafrana which had come into an ASR role that very day. Was in a Hospital with an Army type who was the only survivor from a Glider that had been cast off way out to sea. 19th - It was learned today that Sgt Edwards had been picked up in his dinghy having been afloat from the small hours of the ninth to the evening of the 17th. I think that this is what you seek. Alex
