25.08.40 RAF claims

Hi,

I`m looking for a claim against a single German bomber off the East Coast.
The claimant should be a part of convoy escort force. Perhaps anybody could help here?

Best regards

Robert

29 Sqn's claim was obviously overnight 24-25 but was north-east coast while the 32 and 602 Sqn claims were Dungeness and Dorchester areas respectively so can be discounted
