WARSAW SUPPLY DROP
13-14 AUGUST 1944
When told that we were flying down to Brindisi to take on supplies for our next mission, Taffy [inserted] Lewis [/inserted] and I thought it was the ideal time to try out each others gun position. So, with the pilots permission, Taffy flew in the rear turret whilst I used the mid-upper. The flight was only one hour duration, for which we were both glad, as neither of us liked the change. For me the seat was too low and my view very restricted, and Taffy said, he felt in danger of falling out of the back of the plane. So when we took off for Warsaw we were both happy to be back in our normal flying positions.
On this trip I was wearing for the first time, an electrically wired flying suit with socks and gloves attached and plugged into the aircrafts electrical system, this improved my lot considerably, for I had found, on previous operations, that when the beam doors were opened to swing the beam guns into position as we crossed the Adriatic Coast, on our way out. that the wind whistling round the rear turret, made it an extremely cold place to be. One thing that I noticed about this trip was the extra number of drifts that I was asked to take for the navigator, also the number of doglegs we did to avoid trouble spots, otherwise, it was the usual thing, systematic searching and hoping not to find.
At long last we were approaching the target, “Warsaw”, then the fireworks really started. As we turned away from the Vistula, heading for the dropping zone, although keeping a sharp lookout for enemy aircraft, I could see that we were uncomfortably close to the ground and flying over an inferno, were [sic] people could be clearly seen moving between the burning buildings and coming up at us from all sides was a really colourful array of tracer etc. which, if one could forget the lethal aspect, was better than any firework display I have ever seen. As we started to climb away after the drop I found that my hydraulic controls did not respond so I changed over for evasive action and we found ourselves back over Warsaw taking another hammering. This was a bit of a shock after thinking that we had done the worst part of the job and were on our way home. Eventually we moved out of range and I began to breath easier, but not for long as back we went for a third time.
continued ……..

[inserted] ( [/inserted] If the pilot had known what I was thinking about him at that moment, I would still be in the glasshouse today. [inserted] ) [/inserted] Apparently, the reason for our reluctance to leave Warsaw, was that as well as losing the pilot, one of the engines had been hit and the aircraft was turning on the dead engine and continued to do so for quite a while afterwards. This must have confused the enemy fighters out looking for us. At one point I saw and reported an aircraft with a flashing light on top, passing at an angle close beneath us. then later, from a different direction. [inserted] ( [/inserted] These aircraft usually worked in pairs, one acting as a decoy, to draw the fire, thus giving away the position, whilst the other one moved in for the kill. [inserted] ) [/inserted]
Steve Appleyard, our beam gunner, was about to open up on this aircraft when he heard me on the intercom, thought I’d said lightning, so held his fire wondering what the hell a Lockheed Lightning was doing in this part of the world.
When the pilot bailed out over Warsaw, the only one to see him leave was Bob Burgess, our engineer/second pilot, who immediately took over the controls and was far too busy trying to stay airborne to think of anything else, so that some time elapsed before the rest of the crew could be made aware. [inserted] Bob [/inserted] He first called the navigator up to the flight deck, then after a brief discussion, came on the intercom, to put the rest of us in the picture as to what had happened and what lay before us. Also we were each given the option of bailing out, which we refused.
Because of damage sustained by the plane we could not gain sufficient height to get back over the Carpathian Mountains, so it was decided that we should carry on into Russia, and a landing would be attempted when there was enough daylight.
Some time later the [inserted] Bob [/inserted] second pilot told us that he had been steadily gaining height and that we were now at 8,000 feet. This gave us a better safety margin if anything went wrong, and shortly afterwards something must have gone wrong, for we went into a very steep dive. I was sitting in the rear turret with the doors open and had to grab the sight bracket to save myself falling out backwards. I could not move and was just waiting for the bump but miraculously we levelled out at about 3,000 feet. When daylight came I left the rear turret and took up the beam gun position along side Steve. We were now low on fuel and [inserted] Bob [/inserted] the second pilot asked everyone to keep a sharp lookout for a possible landing site. Shortly afterwards someone spotted a concrete landing strip. On inspection we found that it had been rendered useless by sections having been removed at intervals along its entire length. Bob, however, decided to try landing in the field alongside, and after a dummy run, the navigator and the bomb aimer set about the task of getting the under-carriage down.
continued …….

This had to be done manually, due to hydraulic failure. When the main wheel on my side was down and locked, I looked across at Steve and gave him the thumbs up sign, but he shook his head. Things were beginning to look a trifle sticky, one wheel down, one up, low on fuel, too low to bail out and a pilot who had never taken off or landed one of these planes on his own. But no one seemed unduly perturbed as once again they went through the drill for getting the under-carriage down, and this time, it worked. The wheels were down and locked, but now there was another [underlined] flap on, [/underlined] [inserted] problem [/inserted] with everyone concentrating on the under-carriage we had lost sight of the landing strip, but fortunately not for long. All who could then took up [inserted] our landing [/inserted] [underlined] ditching [/underlined] positions and we came in to a perfect [inserted] X [/inserted] [underlined] three point landing. [inserted] touchdown [/inserted]
What a relieved and happy crew [inserted] we were [/inserted] to be back on solid earth, no matter where it was. Our rejoicing, however, was cut short by the [inserted] Lt Noel Sloeat the [/inserted] navigator, who reminded us that we may still be in enemy held territory and must destroy all secret papers and equipment. This was soon accomplished, and for safety’s sake the guns were unloaded and cleared. We then moved forward to meet the nearest of several groups of soldiers and civilians who were converging on the plane from different directions, but [inserted] we [/inserted] came to a sudden halt as one of the soldiers cocked his rifle. They appeared to be very suspicious of us and kept pointing to the ashes of the burned papers and obviously asking about them. But as there was no common language between us it took a long time, using signs, to convince them that we were their allies.
We found out much later from an interpreter, that they had initially thought we were Americans. Once they were satisfied as to our identities, the mood changed, everyone was happy and willing to help us in any way possible. By this time our thoughts were turning to food, this was easily conveyed to our new hosts, who provided us all with a hearty breakfast. The second pilot, navigator, bomb aimer and [inserted] I [/inserted] myself dined at the nearby village, whilst the top gunner, beam-gunner and the wireless operator were well catered for by the locals, as they stayed with the aircraft. It was at this meal that we had our first taste of vodka, we were all intrigued by the small glass of clear, [underlined] sparkling [/underlined] liquid by the side of each plate, but had no means of enquiring about it. Bob decided to sample it first, raised the glass to his lips then put it down quickly saying, “don’t touch it chaps, its poison”. On seeing our reactions, one of the soldiers took the glass and drained it in one gulp, indicating that it should not be sipped.
After resting for a few hours we were transported by an ancient wagon over dirt roads and wooden bridges to Novograd, where we spent the night. The following morning we were flown to Poltava. Here the reception party included an interpreter so for the first time since landing on Russian soil we were able to discuss the situation and clear up a few points with the Russians.

When everything had been sorted out we were taken in small [inserted] bi [/inserted] by-planes to a nearby rest camp. Then after four days of rest and relaxation were returned to Poltava by the same means. Here we said our goodbyes before climbing aboard a D.C.3, which was standing by to fly us to Moscow. The one thing I could not get used to as a passenger was flying without a harness and parachute. On all previous flights we had been equipped with these items and without them I felt extremely vulnerable. On arrival at Moscow Airport we were met by [inserted] British [/inserted] Embassy Officials, who for the next fortnight took care of our needs and acted as guides on trips to the Bolshei [sic] Theatre for ballet and opera also sight seeing tours around Moscow etc., From Moscow the [inserted] 5 [/inserted] R.A.F. members of the crew were posted back to the United Kingdom.
Flying out on the fourth of September we landed at Cairo Airport on the seventh of that month. Travelling via Stalingrad, Baku, Teheran, Baghdad and Damascus. Our stay in Cairo was longer than we had expected or wanted, but at last, after almost two months we were on our way again, stopping at Malta, Sardinia and finally the South of England on the second of November, and what a contrast from the heat of Cairo to the freezing fog of Britain in two days, but we were not complaining.

THE OBSERVER, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1942
8th ARMY ON HEELS OF FLEEING ENEMY
Prisoners Expected Soon to Number 100,000
“DRIVE AHEAD”
Montgomery’s New Order To His Troops
From OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT
CAIRO, Saturday.
Britain’s Eighth Army is steadily pushing ahead with the destruction of Rommel’s German-Italian forces in North Africa.
Besides the 20,000 prisoners so far officially stated to have been captured, five Italian divisions – which would normally total some 75,000 men – are trapped, with little or no hope of escape.
Hungry bands of isolated Italians, who know they have been let down by their German allies, are hourly surrendering.
Already hundreds of enemy tanks, guns, and motor vehicles, abandoned in the haste of retreat, have been taken by the British.
Rommel is now very short of armour, but he still commands a fighting force capable of giving a good account of itself.
The Eighth Army has now advanced so rapidly that our mobile forces are operating south of Mersa Matruh, 110 miles west of El Alamein, and our air forces, steadily moving up as the battle line moves on, are heavily strafing the enemy troops and vehicles west of that point and beyond.
WHERE CAN WE SURRENDER?
A BUSY RIFLEMAN’S DILEMMA
WITH THE EIGHTH ARMY, Saturday
Driving along the coast from El Daba to Fuka to-day, writes Reuter’s Special Correspondent, I had the unusual job of directing parties of 100 or more Italians who were disconsolately asking where they could surrender.
All along the road we met long lines of Axis troops, mostly Italians, but with a few Germans, trudging along in a dazed way towards the prisoner camps.
All the evidence shows that the Axis withdrawal from the El Daba and El Alamein area was in the nature of a rout.
The whole country west of El Daba is strewn with abandoned vehicles, burned-out tanks, and bodies. I came across mess tents with their tables still laden with uneaten food and mugs of cold tea.
So rapidly did the Eighth Army advance that large pockets, mainly of Italian troops, were found waiting to be rounded up. All the tracks and roads going east were crammed with Italians driving their own lorries and asking the way to the nearest prisoners’ camps.
SMILING PRISONERS
They were all smiling. Even some of the Germans seemed pleased to be out of the war after the last few days of pounding from the air.
I was stopped by a little Cockney Rifleman with a perplexed look on his face, who asked me to take over about 100 Italians from him as he wanted to get on with another job.
“I don’t know what to do with ‘em,” he complained. “They keep following me about – demanding to be allowed to surrender to me.”
One party of Italians near El Daba aerodrome nervously fired a few shots over the British convoy, but in a few minutes two New Zealand bren gun carriers went into action. Three short bursts of bren gun fire, followed by a few hearty New Zealand words – and the whole party of Italians came streaming out with their hands up.
The effect of the Allied air bombing in the last few days is terrifying to see. The road is littered with burned-out vehicles. El Daba and other aerodromes are strewn with wrecked Messerschmitts.

THE TIMES WEDNESDAY JULY 1 1942
CONDUCT OF THE WAR
CENSURE MOTION TO PROCEED
DOUBLE DEBATE
From Our Parliamentary Correspondent
Debates on the loss of Libya and the general conduct of the war will begin at the next sitting in both Houses of Parliament. The Commons debate will take place on the motion tabled by Sir John Wardlaw-Milne and other private members, which reads:-
That this House, while paying tribute to the heroism and endurance of the armed forces of the Crown in circumstances of exceptional difficulty, has no confidence in the central direction of the war.
For some time yesterday there was doubt whether the members concerned would persist with this motion. Some of them were in favour of withdrawing it. Those who took this view argued that it would be inexpedient to go on with it in view of the graver turn of events since the motion was tabled last week and the continuing battle for Egypt. They were conscious, too, of the general opposition in the House to the course adopted by those responsible for the “no confidence” motion.
“ILL-ADVISED”
Further proof of this was provided at the weekly meeting of the Conservative Private Members’ (1922) Committee. A statement issued after the meeting said that Sir John Wardlaw-Milne’s motion had been discussed, and that “there was an overwhelming expression of opinion that the motion was ill-advised and that it should not be supported.” In spite of all this Sir John Wardlaw-Milne and those associated with him decided not to withdraw their motion. This decision was taken after a long discussion at a meeting of the group at which speakers on their behalf were also selected.
Two more members yesterday added their names to the “no confidence” motion – this increases the number supporting it to 21. The newcomers were Sir Murdoch Macdonald (Ind., Inverness) and Sir Henry Morris-Jones (Ind., Flint), both of whom resigned recently from the Liberal National Parliamentary Party. The motion is now backed by seven Conservatives, seven Labour members, six Independents, and one Liberal.
The Parliamentary Labour Party also held another meeting yesterday to discuss further the suggestion that the party should table a motion asking for a full inquiry into the causes of the Libya defeat. It was decided not to table such a motion.
AN APPEAL
A new motion which was tabled last night was one in the names of Commander King-Hall and Mr. Owen Evans, declaring that “in view of the critical nature of the military situation in Egypt, it is not in the national interest to debate the conduct of the war until the present battle has reached a definite conclusion.” If the rules of the House permit, Commander King-Hall also wishes to make an appeal in public to Sir John Wardlaw-Milne, before the debate begins, not to proceed with his motion. In view of the decision taken at yesterday’s meeting any such attempt seems unlikely to succeed.
The Commons debate will go on for two days, and the Prime Minister will speak last, just before the division is taken. To give an opportunity to as many speakers as possible the sitting on the first day will be extended beyond the usual hour for the rising of the House. The debate will be opened by Sir John Wardlaw-Milne, and it is expected that Admiral Sir Roger Keyes will second the “no confidence” motion. The first speech for the Government will then be made by Mr. Oliver Lyttelton, Minister of Production, and he will be followed by Mr. Greenwood speaking for the Labour Party. Those supporting the “no confidence” motion hope that Mr. Clement Davies, Mr. Hore-Belisha, and Mr. Aneurin Bevan may also be called to speak for them in the course of the debate.
It seems certain that the Government will have a very big majority against the motion, but the House will not be satisfied unless it is assured that the most drastic action is being taken to investigate the causes of the Libya defeat and to remedy whatever defeats may have been revealed by these events. This applies both to the leadership and equipment of our forces in the field and to the arrangements for the supreme direction of the war. The Prime Minister’s speech at the end of the debate will be eagerly awaited, and the House will be much influenced by what he has to say.
The debate in the House of Lords will also occupy the whole of a second day. The first Government spokesman there will be Lord Cranborne, and the Lord Chancellor will reply to the debate.
THE TIMES MONDAY JULY 13 1942
DAY RAID ON DANZIG
U-BOAT YARDS BOMBED
1,700 MILES THROUGH STORMS
From Our Aeronautical Correspondent
Several squadrons of Lancasters – the R.A.F.’s latest and fastest heavy bombers – flew 1,750 miles through violent thunderstorms and thick cloud to make a daring daylight attack on Danzig on Saturday evening. It was the longest daylight operational flight made by our bombers. A smaller force of Lancasters also bombed the Baltic port of Flensburg.
The Air Ministry report on the raid stated:-
In daylight on Saturday evening several squadrons of Lancaster bombers attacked the important submarine building yards at Danzig. The attack was made from well below cloud base, and the yards were heavily bombed.
At about the same time other bombers attacked the submarine building yards at Flensburg from a very low level. Bursts are reported on the slipways.
Three aircraft of Bomber Command are missing from these daylight operations.
During Saturday night our bombers laid mines in enemy waters. Two of our aircraft are missing.
VIOLENT WINDS
On the outward journey conditions were difficult for the crews, some of which failed to locate their target. The great bombers were thrown about by violent winds, and had to force their way through thick thunder clouds and sudden storms. Several of our machines were hit by [italics] flak [/italics],
[map]
but the attack was pressed home. No German fighters appear to have been up, probably on account of the unfavourable conditions.
As in most of Bomber Command’s recent raids, the main targets were production centres of importance in the Battle of the Atlantic – U-boat and other shipbuilding yards – and the bursting of many heavy bombs in the target area was observed, while some of the crews reported big fires.
Danzig is the only submarine building centre which the enemy might reasonably have regarded as being outside the range of our bombers, and for that reason the dock and yard facilities have been further developed by the Germans.
