Grid Posted 27 October , 2016 Share Posted 27 October , 2016 Hi all, Has anyone done any work on the successes of 50 HD Sq against the German heavy bombers in their night raids. I am particularly interested in the period 13 October 1917 to 16 August 1918, under command of Major Brandon. I see that in Sutherland and Canwell, Battle of Britain 1917: The First Heavy Bomber Raids on England, that they have 50 HD Sq being scrabbled on ten occasions over this period. Looking through Cole and Cheesman I don't see any confirmed successes against the bombers for this unit's airman during this period, although I note a Gotha was claimed (shared) by a 50 HD Sq defensive battery on 5/6 December 1917 (p. 357). Any confirmation on this greatly appreciated and any insights on the squadron over this period would be useful. Many thanks, Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
