Wellington North Sea Rescue 18th April 1941

I am new to this forum but notice several posts about a Wellington that force landed in the North Sea on 18th April 1941. My father Graham GA Davies Spitfire pilot received a commendation directly from Air Marshall Fighter Command for finding the Wellington. Shortly after my dad was awarded the DFC. My Dad died in 1986 but I remember that he always wondered who or what was onboard the Wellington suggesting they (or what they had) must have been very important to warrant such attention. Maybe someone on this forum could help??
