It would be great if the RAF crews who flew these missions had their personal stories documented and their bravery recognised
A number of aircrew involved with these missions were awarded the Air Force Cross. For example the captain of a 192 squadron Washington who flew a mission along the Soviet border in order to obtain ELINT on radar fitted to Mig 15s which required the crew to get the MiGs to intercept their plane.
