You understand my problem now! F540 doesn’t help but Men of the BofB, Skinner & now Cossey say yes

Re: Combat Report H M Stephen & Mungo-Park 74 Sqn, 27 Oct 40

Chris,

The Combat Reports that Frank mentions are available for online viewing and can be found in the 74 Sqn. Appendix to the ORB in AIR 27/644 frames 44 through 54. These include a squadron report as well as individual CRs for Stephen, Mungo-Park, Chesters and Nelson. S/L Malan is shown as force landing due to battle damage without making any claims himself. No where is Skinner mentioned.

However, and this is interesting, the sqn. report gives the total claims as 3 Me 109s destroyed and 2 damaged. The claims for the four pilots listed were 3-0-1. So that leaves 1 damaged claim unaccounted for. We can speculate that this is Skinner's claim as related by Col. Bruggy.

Tom
