And so we begin 1941.
I would like to thank Alex for doing this work, as it has provided a useful cross-check of our database and allowed numerous corrections/updates to be made.

Thank you Andy,
From now on I will only enter those names that are on my "Henk's" list. But will also add others that I come across in the CWGC site that are not in the database or that have no details re Unit in the CWGC site. I will also continue to add FAA and German and Italian airmen when they appear.
Otherwise as the loss numbers by day will increase I may find that the task will be to much to deal with. Those that have Squadron and aircraft known I will not enter into the lists from now on.
