August 11/12, 1943


    7 Wellingtons from 432 Squadron were ordered on a mining operation to Brest. The crews were over the garden at between 2,000 and 3,000 feet, releasing 10@1500 lb mines.

    F/O C. Barrett returned early as the radios were u/s.
    Sgt T. Spink returned without mining as they could not find the pinpoint.
