12 squadron ORB April 1943 - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

Please does anyone in the whole world have any copies of the ops records for 12 sqn in April 1943? I am particularly in need of info for 16/17th April when 9 a/c were tasked to Plzen Skoda works. The current sqn doesn't have them, nor does Air Historical branch or Wickenby register, or the sqn assoc. Any help particularly veterans of this raid would be very much appreciated.

Wouldn't this be AIR 27/172 at the www.nationalarchives.gov.uk ?

Yes this is correct for the orb for 12 sqn but the month of April 43 is missing. I forgot to mention that in my list of places I checked. I have checked every where I think. National archives UK do not have it! I am hoping someone got copies privately before it went missing.

Nice try Andy, and very interesting but again no April 43 records! :-( One researcher I know looked several years ago in UK archives but found nothing for April 43 12 sqn.
