5 Group sent 102 Lancasters and 2 Mosquitoes to attack the stretch of the canal near Ladbergen which the Germans had just repaired - again! The Canal was breached again, but 1 Lancaster failed to return (9 Sqdn, 4 killed, 3 PoW). This was not a good day for 9 Sqdn, for in addition to the one above, two crashed shortly after take off (6 killed, 2 injured, 6 unhurt) another crashed near Limburg (467 Sqdn, 1 injured) due to flak damage (2 injured) and a fourth crash landed in Noord-Brabant (2 unhurt, 1 so badly burned he died the following day and 4 injured, one of whom died 3 weeks later. This unfortunate, but very brave airman, was F/Sgt. George Thompson who was awarded the VC for saving the lives of the mid-upper (died on 2nd Jan) and rear gunner. I suggest you google him if you're not familiar with his act of extreme bravery.
