Requiem for
Bomber Crew
My brief sweet life is over, my eyes no longer see
No summer walks - no Christmas Trees- no pretty girls for me
I've got the chop, I've had it, my nightly ops are done,
Yet in another
hundred years I`ll still be twenty
one

This raid was not successful. There was some cloud in the target area; this, together with difficulties with H2S equipment and probably the ferocity of the German defences, all combined to cause the Pathfinder markers to be dropped well south of the centre of the target area and the Main Force bombing to be even further away. The main bombing area eventually extended 30 miles back along the bombers' approach route. After this raid, Gauleiter Goebbels ordered the evacuation from Berlin of all children and all adults not engaged in war work to country areas or to towns in Eastern Germany where air raids were not expected. 47 aircraft - 20 Halifaxes, 17 Stirlings, 10 Lancasters - lost, 1.6 per cent of the force. The Stirling casualties were 16.0 per cent! Approximately two thirds of the bombers lost were shot down by German fighters operating over or near Berlin. The use of 'fighter flares', dropped by German aircraft to 'mark' the bomber routes into and away from the target, was noted for the first time in Bomber Command records

26/27 November 1943
443 Lancasters and 7 Mosquitos to Berlin and Stuttgart (diversion). Both forces flew a common route over Northern France and on nearly to Frankfurt before diverging. The German controllers thought that Frankfurt was the main target until a late stage and several bombers were shot down as they flew past Frankfurt. Only a few fighters appeared over Berlin, where flak was the main danger, but the scattered condition of the bomber stream at Berlin meant that bombers were caught by fighters off track on the return flight and the casualties mounted. 28 Lancasters were lost, 6.2 per cent of the force, and 14 more Lancasters crashed in England. The weather was clear over Berlin but, after their long approach flight from the south, the Pathfinders marked an area 6-7 miles north-west of the city centre and most aircraft bombed there. Because of Berlin's size, however, most of the bombing still fell within the city boundaries and particularly on the semi-industrial suburb of Reinickendorf; smaller amounts of bombing fell in the centre and in the Siemensstadt (with many electrical factories) and Tegel districts. The Berlin Zoo was heavily bombed on this night. Many of the animals had been evacuated to zoos in other parts of Germany but the bombing killed most of the remainder. Several large and dangerous animals - leopards, panthers, jaguars, apes - escaped and had to be hunted and shot in the streets.
The diversionary raid on Stuttgart was carried out by 157 Halifaxes and 21 Lancasters. 6 Halifaxes lost, 3.4 per cent of the force. The bombing was very scattered and caused little damage but part of the night-fighter force was drawn off from the Berlin operation.

MARY EVANS age 24 ACW 1st class W.A.A.F 12th February 1945
Daughter of Walter and Josephine Evans, of Keswick. Buried St Johns, Keswick. Based at R.AF Weeton, Mary was a clerk, she died of meningitis in Blackpool Victoria Hospital.
I was called up to serve in the WAAF in 1943. My
trade was that of telephonist which saw me posted to RAF Weeton
in Lancashire where I had two very good friends, one a fellow
telephonist was Hilda Brown and the other, a clerk, was Mary
Evans from Keswick where her parents had a private hotel.
I recall after being at Weeton only a few months, how Mary
complained of severe headaches so we advised her to report sick
which she did and was admitted to the Sick Quarters for
observation and further treatment. From there she was transferred
to the Victoria Hospital in Blackpool where she fell into a coma.
All this happened very quickly, over a matter of several days
with her parents not being informed of the seriousness of her
condition by the Service Authorities. In retrospect they were
aggrieved at not being informed until it was too late.
Both Hilda and I knew Mary was seriously ill but that was all. We
learned later that she had contracted meningitis. We were
informed of her death by an officer and that Hilda and I, being
her closest friends, had to represent the Service at her funeral
accompanied by an officer. Her parents wanted no other contact
with the WAAF as they were very bitter over the delay in
informing them of the seriousness of Mary's condition and we were
the only people requested to attend by her parents.
I remember the journey from Weeton to the funeral at Keswick very
clearly. The three of us, Hilda, I and the officer had each to
carry two huge wreaths. The officer travelled first class and we
noticed her packed lunch was not the same as ours as it was
wrapped in a white napkin and ours was old cheese in thick bread
wrapped in greaseproof paper and nothing to drink with it. We
tried to eat the sandwiches but eventually gave up on them.
It was with great relief that we stopped at Carnforth Station
where ladies of the WVS, as it was then, were handing out jam
jars of lovely hot tea to Service personnel which was most
welcome. I remember thinking at the time, that if my mother, who
was only a few miles away in Lancaster, could have seen her well
brought up daughter drinking tea from a jam jar on Carnforth
Station she would have been most upset!.
As the train arrived late we had to run into Keswick from the
station still carrying our huge wreaths. I recall as we turned a
street corner we bumped into several small boys playing. One
turned and looked directly at me and I recognised Mary's little
brother who I'd met before, it was a horrible experience. I
couldn't control my tears or wipe them away as I was carrying
Mary's wreaths.
Being late the cortege was leaving the house as we arrived so we
joined the rear of the procession until Hilda and I were ordered
to 'slow march' each side of our friend's coffin to the
graveside. At the burial we had to stand and salute as the coffin
was slowly lowered into the grave, a terrible experience I shall
never forget as we were all such close friends barely out of our
teens.

GEORGE EDWARD GILPIN Sgt Air/Gnr R.A.F. 50 Sqd 4th May 1944
ED870 was initially
issued to 97 Sqdn May 1943 before joining 50 Squadron Sep 1943 as
VN-I or VN-J.
ED870 took part in the following Key Raids: With 50 Sqdn - Berlin
22/23Nov43; Berlin 23/24Nov43; Berlin 2/3Dec43; Berlin
16/17Dec43; Berlin 29/30Dec43; Berlin 1/2Jan44; Berlin 2/3Jan44;

ED870
Take off 21.58
Skellingthorpe. Part of a force of 360 aircraft - 346 Lancasters,
14 Mosquitoes, tasked to attack the German military camp situated
close the French village of Mailly. Two
Master Bombers where use to control the raid; the first the
"Marker Leader" assessed the initial target marking to be
accurate and transmitted this to the "Main Force Controller" who
was then advised that the main force bombers to come in and bomb.
However, "Main Force Controller's" VFH radio could not transmit
as it had been incorrectly tuned and was being drowned out by an
American forces broadcast. The main force by this time had
arrived on schedule and began to circle awaiting the "Main Force
Controller's" order to bomb, which he could not transmit.
Finally, the "Deputy Main Force Controller" took over the raid
and some 1,500 tons of bombs were accurate placed causing heavy
damage. Local reports record 114 barrack buildings, 47 transports
sheds and several buildings used to store ammunition being hit
and 102 vehicles which included 37 tanks as destroyed. The delay
in bombing allowed the German night-fighter's to arrive and
combats began even as the force continued to circle;and then
continued along the homebound leg. 42 aircraft, 11.60 percent of
the force were lost - 42 Lancasters.
As the Lancaster approached the aiming point it was shot down and crashed at Poivres (Aube) approximately 20 km's NNE of Arcis-sur-Aube. All of the crew are buried in the Poivres Churchyard. Sgt. White, RCAF was flying as mid-upper gunner. At the time of its loss the aircraft had accumulated a total of 538 hours on its airframe.
Aircraft
reported to have completed 59 operational
sorties.

GEORGE D. KIRKBY age 22 F/sgt R.A.F.V.R. 144 Sqn 4th Sept 1942
Son of George and Daisy Kirkby, of Grasmere
Part of 5 group, the squadron continued to operate out of North Luffenham until April 1942, when it’s role changed to torpedo bombing and it joined Coastal Command at RAF Leuchars 21 Apr 1942 - Sep 1942. 144 Sqn was the RAF Hampden Squadron to incur the most operational losses while operating the type, suffering a total of 109 aircraft lost.
JOSEPH HENRY PEILL Flt/ Sgt R.A.F. 50 Sqn 5th January 1945
This aircraft was one of 200 Lancaster Mk.1s ordered Apr 1943 from Metro-Vick and delivered from June 1944 to Dec 44 with Merlin 24 engines. PD292 was delivered to 50 Squadron August 1944. No other operational history.
Lancaster MK1 PD292, take off 00.59 Skellingthorpe. Part of a force of 354 aircraft - 347 Lancasters, 7 Mosquitoes, tasked to attack Royan. With the objective of 'softening up' the German Garrison which held the town and prevented the Allies for gaining access to the port of Bordeaux; the target was attacked in two waves separated by one hour. Bombing is reported to have been extremely accurate and the 1,576 tons of bombs are estimated to have destroyed between 85 to 90 percent of the town. This is a controversial raid as many French civilians remained in the town, but information passed to Allied Supreme Headquarters stated that all remaining French citizens remaining were considered to be German collaborators. This information was proved incorrect as each, after being given the opportunity to leave by the German Commander, had decided to remain in order to protect their properties. Bomber Command was cleared of all accusations and the officer who requested the raid take placed and supplied the information regarding the French citizens was removed from his command. The German garrison finally surrendered on 18 April 1945. 4 aircraft, 1.13 percent of the force were lost - 4 Lancasters. The aircraft was lost without trace. All of the crew have no known graves and are commemorated on the Runnymede Memorial.

197 aircraft - 105 Wellingtons, 31 Stirlings, 29 Halifaxes, 15 Hampdens, 13 Lancasters, 4 Manchesters.
11 aircraft - 4 Halifaxes, 4 Stirlings, 3 Wellingtons - lost.
155 aircraft reported hitting Mannheim but most of the bombing photographs showed forest or open country. The Mannheim reports described the long delay before the attack developed, with aircraft at greater heights than in previous raids passing to and fro searching for the target. When the raid did begin, bombs approximately equivalent to no more than 10 aircraft loads fell in the city. A concentrated group of about 600 incendiaries in the harbour area on the Rhine burnt out 4 small industrial concerns - a blanket factory, a mineral-water factory, a chemical wholesalers and a timber merchants. Only light damage was caused elsewhere in the city.
