Alain,
As suggested elsewhere, Dienst should be read as Diest, but this is some 35 km from Eksel.... Instead, read https://www.luchtvaartgeschiedenis.b...j-leopoldsburg and this is closer to Eksel. Perhaps also see http://rutten.org/literatuur/mathieu...rkante-feiten/ about air losses in BE-Limburg. SGLO database and Wingstovictory website give details about the Blenheim losses in the Netherlands that day. Groet, Leendert |

Not quite, Alain. Please refer to links in my post #3. V6423 at/near Leopoldsburg (Eksel?), several more Blenheims over Dutch territory and off coast.
Groet, Leendert |
