Re: Missing Wingcommanders
Dennis. W/Cdr J. Coverdale RAF went missing without a trace while flying with 431 Sq on June 21,1943. The route in would of taken them south of Rotterdam and the return trip out over Belgium. Is this man a possibility?

Re: Missing Wingcommanders
Hi Richard,
The area where he could have entered the water makes sense. South of Noordwijk along the coast, or along the coast of Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Kent. He would have spent over 140 days in the water. The record for casualties that washed up in Noordwijk and Katwijk is 129 days (the unidentified excluded). I can’t exclude Coverdale, that’s as far as I dare to go in these matters. Do you have a special interest in W/Cdr Coverdale? Dennis
