observer, 836
Squadron FAA [HMS Daedalus] (shot down in Swordfish V (4495, coded E4K) in sea 2 miles off mouth of estuary at
Le Havre whilst minelaying on the North West French coast) |
A relative writes: "I
have practically no information about his short service in a Swordfish Squadron
though he did come home for a short leave at Christmas time 1942 and told me
that he had been stationed initially in Machrihanish and in Lossiemouth both in
Scotland but of late had been involved in attacks along the Dutch and German
Frisian coast so must have been based somewhere along the east side of England
for that purpose. I do know that his final base was Thorney Island in Hampshire,
an RAF station which the F.A.A. were allowed to use." |
