18th of September 1944, Stirling IV LJ913, 570 Sqdn, Gelderland....
Remarks: Details from Cummings' "Though Without Anger", 18/9/44 LJ913 Stirling IV, Schaarsbergen. The aircraft was belly landed following damage sustained from enemy AA fire. The aircraft's crew had just finished dropping its load and it was down to 500 feet when it was struck by AA fire and a serious blaze started in the port wing. The aircraft continued to descend and struck the ground, causing the rear turret to break off and probably saving the gunner's life in the process because only he and a despatcher survived.
