”Under en mineudlægningsoperation til
Danzig-bugten styrtede en Lancaster
(LAN
LM652)
den 27. august 1944 i havet, antagelig Kattegat. Fra LAN LM652 er 1 flyver begravet i Tved på Mols og 1 i Mandal i Norge. 6 flyvere har ingen kendt grav.
"Efter krigen er adskillige vragdele fundet i Begtrup Vig og i farvandet
syd for Mols Hoved, men det har ikke været muligt at identificere flyet ud fra
vragdelene. Flying Officer Frank Kenneth Morley, 19,
was the son of J. Gordon Morley and Dorothy Ena Morley, of Stratford, Ontario,
Canada. "After the war a number of pieces of wreckage have been found in Begtrup Vig (Cove) and in the waters south of Mols Hoved, but it has not been possible to identify the aircraft by the pieces of wreckage. However, it must be presumed that this is LAN LM652" (FT 90-106-29) In that case the plane has crashed maybe about here."
