niskin: Det var da som 7 ..... - ved cach tjek i dag kunne jeg konstatere at der er en der ikke ønsker at her ligger en "kasse" - Cachen var ellers camoufleret så den ikke kunne ses, men man skulle have fat i den - men den var væk og jeg må nok indse at her kommer ikke til at ligge en cach.
Lukkes hermed. ØV

The aircraft belonged to RAF 35 Sqn Bomber Command and was coded TL-C. T/O 17:03 Graveley. OP: Berlin. Returning to England W7886 was attacked by a German JU 88C night fighter from 10./NJG 3 which was controlled by the radar station FAUN based on the island of Fyn.
