    Default Missing crew members from Wellington HF746 20 O T U. 14.11.1943

    Hi All,

    A bit of a long shot, but did anyone on here researching 20 O T U, ever find out the names of the crew who baled out of HF746 on the eve of 14 Nov 1943?

    The Wellington went on to crash on Ben Rinnes near Dufftown, killing pilot Sgt Norman Frederick Grove and W/OP/AG Sgt James Hyne Rennie.

    BCL W.R. Chorley only gives the above two names, but various sources say 5 were on board. I don`t have the 1180 for this one, so if anyone has this could
    they varify the number on board please.

    Regards
    Dave.

    Hi, unfortunaltely the Form 1180 only lists the Pilot Sgt. N.F Grove. There are no details of the crew who bailed out.
