"Victories (Claims)" & photos
Monday, March 17, 2008 at 02:17PM The past month I have been going through 434 files from digitized microfilm, sorting into categories. One folder now contains at least 20 combat reports from this I will be updating "Victories (Claims)" section to include all combat reports, however it will be readers digest version of encounters with the Luftwaffe.
So far the following crews were engaged by enemy fighters...
Henry Crew 129, Rothenbush Crew 139, Hall Crew 143, *Andres Crew 137, Wagman Crew 115, Purnell Crew 145, Coulter Crew 118, Fern Crew 151, Cameron Crew 152, Buttle Crew 132, Kitchen Crew 144, Dawson Crew 160, Hawes Crew 156, Isenberg Crew 114, Coghlan Crew 141, Wild Crew 163, Yuill Crew 147, Hess Crew 167.
*replacement A/G’s from other crews.
I know there are more combat reports/crews other then the above listed.
As well in the past I have recieved emails with concerns of submitting photo's, all I ask is the photo be scanned at 200 dpi minimum, with a brief description (biography if an individual) included.

My Uncle Hugh Davey Was A Pilot On The 152 Cameron Crew, Who Lost His Life On A Mission. I'm Wondering If Anyone Has Photos Of The Crew They Would Like To Share.
Thanks In Advance
Hugh Davey is regarded as an American casualty and . is in a list of their war dead. He is buried in Glasgow at Craigton Cemetery
