RNAS losses 10th August 1915
I am interested in the story behing the shooting down of David Keith Johnston at Ostend on 10th August 1915, and have read the posts by Regulus, Soderbaum, Frank, errol and tirpitzbe here on 28th February/1st March 2002.
Can anyone direct me to the full story? tirpitzbe says "There exists a picture".
Was David attacking the Luftschiff?
Was his the plane shot down at 11.45?
If so, what was happening during the 5.5-hour gap from 06.15 when the airship was reported as coming down and and 11.45?
Regulus says "Rescue was not possible". We are fairly sure David was buried with honour by the Germans - we have a headstone. Are there any web-accessible records of this?
Many thanks for any information on this.
