Data derived from many sources. Incorporates 125,000 entries from Aircrew Deaths 39-47 Database. Corrections/Additions welcomed via Helpdesk

NOTE ON DATES: IMPORTANT: For consistency, the Date is given as the date the mission TOOK OFF since the precise time of a loss is not always certain. Take Off date is unambigous and fixed in the official records, but obviously in those cases where the incident occurred before midnight UK time, then the Take Off Date will be the same as the Incident Date. Of course, most Bomber Command missions flew through midnight, therefore a Luftwaffe claim against a plane - or a locally generated crash report - may record the incident as occurring on the day following our Take Off Date. Bear this in mind when cross-referencing to our Luftwaffe Victories by Name/Date Database and other Luftwaffe sources. In some cases other sources may quote the date following our date, using locally generated reports as their source. To add to the potential for confusion, remember to take into account a Luftwaffe recorded date will be in local time, 1 hour ahead of UK time. When we discover a validated Incident Date we change our record if necessary.

Whilst with 139 Sqn, gazetted 18th June 1943. Citation reads "Bar to Distinguished Service Order. Acting Wing Commander Reginald Wilfred REYNOLDS, D.S.O., D.F.C.

Distinguished Flying Medal. 1379594 Flight Sergeant Leslie HOGAN, No. 105 Squadron. On the 27th May, 1943. a force of bombers were detailed to attack targets at Jena, Germany, in daylight. The operation called for a high degree of skill and necessitated a flight over strongly defended areas and difficult terrain. Whilst still a considerable distance from the target, the weather deteriorated and visibility became very poor. Nevertheless, the objective, far away in enemy territory was reached according to plan. In spite of balloon defences, and in the face of fierce antiaircraft fire, a low level attack was pressed home with great vigour. The success achieved reflects the greatest credit on the efforts of the abovenamed personnel who took part in the operation in various capacities, as members of aircraft crews. Their skill, courage and determination were of a high order."

Engine and hull damaged. Belly landing at 13:06 hrs in RAF Marham. Converted to a "Hanger Queen"	Survived		DFC awarded wihilst with 105 Sqn, gazetted 16th February 1943. Citation reads "On the 30th January, 1943, two forces of bombers were detailed to attack Berlin, one during the morning and the other during the afternoon. To reach the German capital necessitated a flight of more than 500 miles, mostly over heavily defended territory. Close co-ordination and precise timing were essential but, such was the skill exhibited, that the target was reached and the attacks delivered within seconds of the specified time. That complete success was achieved, despite opposition from the ground defences, is a high tribute to the calm courage, resolution and endurance displayed by the following officers and airmen who, hi various capacities, acted as members of the aircraft crews." DSO awarded whilst with 139 Sqn, gazetted 18th June 1943. Ctiation reads: "Bar to Distinguished Service Order. Acting Wing Commander Reginald Wilfred REYNOLDS, D.S.O., D.F.C.

As pilot and navigator respectively these officers have taken part in numerous sorties against a wide I variety of targets. In October, 1944, they took part in a most successful attack on a vital German -target. In this well executed operation, these officers displayed skill and resolution of the highest standard." 2nd Bar to DFC awarded whilst with 140 Wing, gazetted 22nd June 1945. Citation reads: "In March, 1945, Squadron Leader Sismore was the navigator in the leading aircraft of a laige formation detailed to attack the Gestapp headquarters at Copenhagen. The operation, necessitating a flight of more than 1,000 miles, demanded the highest standard of navigational ability. In this direction, Squadron Leader Sismore's work was outstanding and contributed materially to the success obtained. Again, in April, 1945, this officer flew with great distinction in an attack against a similar target at Odense. This officer, who has completed much operational flying, has rendered very valuable service."

At 2010 hours it was reported that the aircraft had crashed at Molesworth near Desborough at 2004 hours. A later Flying Accident report stated: “the aircraft took off at 1930 hours. At 2000 hours it was seen by the fourth witness apparently on track on the second leg of the exercise at a height of between 500/1000 feet. It was on fire. The aircraft turned to port sharply and crashed to the ground burning fiercely. The Court found: “the accident was caused by fire probably in the port engine which broke out for some unknown reason. In view of the fact that there was a hole in the wallet of the Pilot which was picked up in the debris, and which may have been caused by a bullet, it is not possible to rule out the theory that the aircraft may have been shot down, although the court considered that it was very remote that the aircraft was shot down.”
