More About Tangier

To update my message post this morning.

Flt Lt Walker & Plt Off Hawes were flying a Beaufighter JM390 from Gibraltar to Port Lyautey and were shot down by flak off Spanish Morocco.

Flt Sergeant Rodwell was killed when the engine of Hurricane PZ808 failed in flight. A forced landing was attempted but the aircraft struck a rock and turned over. This happened 3 miles north of Arcila Morocco.

I think that about wraps up Tangier Cemy from an RAF point of view.
