"Under et bombeangreb på Hamburg
nedstyrtede en Lancaster i havet den 25. juli 1943 (omkring
her siger AOD). Det må have været under det første af 4 store angreb på
Hamburg i slutningen af juli og i begyndelsen af august 1943." (FAF)

have been during the first of 4 very large attacks on Hamburg around 1 August
1943. (Source: FAF)
