Aerodrome at Comiso, Sicily
7 July 1943
From 150 Squadron ORB's
Mission summary:
"This night's target was the aerodrome at Comiso, Sicily, for which 14 of our aircraft were detailed under the following captains:
- F/Lt Langlois
- F/O Jones
- F/O Kalberer
- F/O Rogers
- F/Sgt Mortimer
- F/Sgt Ivory
- Sgt P.G. Smith
- Sgt Seville
- Sgt J Alazrachi
- Sgt Sullivan
- Sgt
J.E. Alazrachi
- Sgt Tinsley
- Sgt Wilkes
The aircraft took off in three waves between 2050 and 0113 hours. There were isolated patches of medium cloud over the sea and target
area and ground haze and intense darkness all added to the difficulties of target identification. A few crews claim to have identified
the aerodrome and most believe that their bombs were dropped in the vicinity. Nickels were dropped. All aircraft returned safely."
