Re: Please ID the target case

The attack on the ship is discussed here. It is not clear there were any casualties as the ship was at anchor and was apparently empty:

The attack on the power station is discussed here, with the pilot and navigator identified:
Pilot: Cyril Reginald "Rusty" Russell
Navigator: Lt G W Stanbury, both in Belgrade Commonwealth Cemetery.
