as yet not a single stamp , they are very distinctive though, just hope someone will recognise them

Seems that they did have a few Merlin powered Wellington’s. So there may have been an error in the losses log as to aircraft type, Kev

I have found a reference on another forum discussing possible errors in Choreley’s losses book
it reads that W5426 (Not 36) crashed at Hapleys (mis spelling of Hopley’s) Horringer
Author thinks codes may be wrong and that LNX Should be LNY
can anyone clear up the details of the story as it seems that this is the aircraft Kev

Shudy camps is not far from me and I used to work there, There were military huts there at the top of the village (now woodland) They were as far as I know used by a black American unit of engineers or pioneers in the build up to D day it is a fair distance from the old Castle camps airfield . I don’t know if the site was originaly billets for airmen, Kev
