Narrative:
Leutnant Gustav Mohr performed a belly-landing, presumably due to fuel shortage. The aircraft had taken off at 02.00 hrs for a mission.

That night, over 1,000 Bomber Command sorties were dispatched on seven Main Force raids against flying-bomb (Crossbow) sites in the area behind Dieppe-Cayeux and Cap Griz Nez, two attacks on railway yards at Vitry and Vaires, and on supporting operations.
