Log-book corroboration

Jim Ives' last flying duty before his posting away from 625 Squadron in December 1943 was on a fighter affiliation exercise, sharing the pilot's duties with F/Sgt Reg Price RCAF (December 5^th, Lancaster DV364, 1hr.25mins, day). I recently ran across Mr Frank Sutton's flying log-book

which neatly mirrors entries in F/Sgt Price's and cousin Jim's own log-books.

Of current interest too are Frank Sutton's notes concerning losses on the Nuremberg raid of 30^th/31^st March 1944 :- 'THIS TRIP WAS SHEER HELL – N/Fs ATTACKING IN STRENGTH' – LOST 96 A/C'.

Significant, don't you think, that our aircrews knew exactly how bad losses were.
