    Hello,

    I am wondering if there is any information on Robert “red” Webber. He was a flight engineer I believe.

    Thank you,

      My name is Del Badiuk and I am the curator of the 408 Sqn Archives. I don’t have a lot of information available but here is a quick synopsis.

      F/S Sayers and the other members of the Smith crew from 408 Squadron, flying Halifax II HR-655 coded EQ-S, failed to return from a bombing operation on LORIENT. Airborne 1908 7Feb43 from Leeming. Cause of loss and crash-site not established. All were killed.

      This was thier 4th Operational mission as a crew. If you would like copies of the entries from the 408 Sqn ORB, please contact me at:
