12 Hampdens minerede ved Frederiksstad i Norge og Frederikshavn. Kl. 21.00 lettede P4377, og derefter hørte man intet fra flyet. De tyske flakbatterier ved
Skagen og Frederikshavn beskød allierede fly i tidsrummet 01.00-01.30. Kl. 01.15 styrtede et brændende fly i Kattegat mellem Skagen og Frederikshavn.
Da P4377 var nattens eneste tab, må det derfor være Sgt R. J. Jennings (DFM) og hans tre besætningsmedlemmer, der således forsvandt." (FT 89-34-6)

On 7 August 1940 HAM P4377 crashed into the Kattegat, about here. (Danish) Aviation Historical Review writes:
"6 - 7 August 1940 (01:15). The Kattegat, between Skagen and Frederikshavn. Hampden, Mk. 1, P4377 (EA- ).
49 BS, 5 BG, Scampton, Lincs. (Minelaying: »Undergrowth« at Frederikshavn). 4 MIA. (See Minelaying areas)

12 Hampdens laid mines at Frederikstad in Norway and Frederikshavn. P4377 took off at 21:00 and after that nothing was heard from the plane.
The German flak batteries at Skagen and Frederikshavn fired at allied planes in the time span 01:00-01:30. At 01:15 a plane crashed, burning,
into the Kattegat between Skagen and Frederikshavn. As P4377 was the only loss that night, it must have been Sgt R. J. Jennings (DFM) and his 3 crew
members who then disappeared." (FT 89-34-6)
