Regards Lanc ME799, my Uncle and his crew took off a minute and a half earlier in LM131.
F/OArmstrong and the crew appear immediately above F/O Pat Furlong and his crew on the Ops Record Sheet for the 28th July 1944.

On board ME799 was a relative - Air Gunner Sgt Albert Miles B Cutting s/n 1806570. He survived the crash was captured and sent to Stalag Luft III - the “Great Escape” camp. He survived the war.
Any further information would be appreciated.
