Lancaster W4234 DX-P

57 RAF Sqd

Tijdens de eerste winternacht (21 december) van 1942 vlogen de bommenwerpers van Bomber Command richting München. Omstreeks 23u30 ving de Freya-radar langs de kust de eerste berichten op van de aankomende formatie. Van op St.-Truiden werden 5 toestellen op goed geluk ingezet. Ook van op Laon-Athies startten de Messerschmitts van de 1.NJG 4 de motoren en verspreidden zich doorheen het Vlaamse luchtruim. Eén van de indringers was de Lancaster met rompcode DX-P,een toestel van het 57 Squadron, die nacht opgestegen in Scampton (Engeland).
