Allied Losses off Crete 1 Jun 44

Has anyone got details of the 454 Sqn Baltimore and possibly a 38 Sqn Wellington lost on this date?

Re: Allied Losses off Crete 1 Jun 44

On 1 June 1944, 454 Sqn lost Baltimore FW399 and its crew of four.

You can check the Sqn ORB there:
1) go to http://naa12.naa.gov.au/ and click login as Guest
2) click on link below http://naa12.naa.gov.au/SearchNRetri...arcode=1359204
3) click on Digital Copy and go to page 491 to have a summary of the day and to page 499 to have the details for 1 June 1944

Another useful source on 454 Sqn: http://www.454-459squadrons.org.au/d...the%20Alps.pdf

Thanks Laurent. It would appear that the Balitimore was lost shadowing rather than in the major attack that evening so thanks
