Re: Whirlwinds victories

Sally-Anne

The 16 Sqn diary seems to suggest that this operation was on 30 April 1943.

On 30/4/43 the diary records that W/Cdr J R Davenport and F/Off D A Greville-Heygate flew a Rhubarb along the railway from Dol - Rennes - Lamballe. Two locomotives were damaged, one motor barge was damaged off Jersey. Light flak from position 2/3 miles West of Dol. Machine gun fire from largest ship of vessels attacked.

There is no mention that 16 Sqn was operating with 263 Sqn but that does not mean that it did not happen.

Perhaps someone else can help with the 263 Sqn part of the story

Steve
