Over the last year or so, some questions have been asked about the 37 Squadron ORB. I have been unable to access this for many months but it is now back in my posession. Anyone requiring info from the ORB I will be happy to try and oblige them.

Hello Kevin,

Actually yes, I do have a question about the ORB of 37 Squadron. Some years ago I checked the microfilm in TNA for details about the bombing mission of the Wellington and crew of Sgt Milstead on a secondary target in Holland in the night of 19/20th November 1940.

I couldn't find an entry and above mission may not have been logged at all in the ORB because of the move to the Middle East. But as I'm always in a hurry in TNA (who not?) I may have missed the entry.

Would you be willing to check if there's indeed no Form 541 information of the crew and concerned Wellington?

Thanks in advance,
Hans Nauta

Hans.

There is no mention of such an operation on the Form 540 and there is no Form 541 for November 1940. I have no access to any other documentation.

Sorry I can't be of any further help.

Kevin Mears
