30 December 1942 Part 6a Air activity and shipping suspension

Related existing record: 30 December 1942 Part 6 — 30 December 1942 Aircraft activity and suspension of island shipping. This separate source account concerns material already represented in that record; it does not by itself establish an additional incident.

On 29 and 30 December there was considerable enemy flying activity over the Cotentin peninsula and the sea area of the Channel Islands. Shipping with the Channel Islands has been suspended because of stormy weather.
