1. Captains report:
SOE Trushred 2. F/L Chesterton carried aout his mission successfully under ideal conditions. He experienced one hangup due to an electrical failure. Flak was observed along the routee in several places, and following one burst of flak there was bright explosion which may have been aircraft hit. Some shipping was observed in the Oslo area. On return to England, Chesterton landed at Marston Moor.
2. Captain report.
SOE Trushred 2. F/O Allen dropped all his containers but was unable to drop his three packages owing to the doors beeing iced up. He also had one hang up, but as this dropped in DZ area, it would in all probability be found. On leaving tthe DZ he was sunable to close his bomb doors, and they had to be wound in manually. Coring was also experienced but was ssuccessfully cleared after 35 minutes.
All confirmed received by field. HS2-145 p284/285
Lasten fra TAIL 2 (AM 127 nr 4) ble også sluppet her av F/O Neale.
