Diary Entry

31 December 1942 Part 11a Suspected minelaying

Related existing record: 31 December 1942 Part 11 — 31 December 1942 Suspected minelaying in island waters. This separate source account concerns material already represented in that record; it does not by itself establish an additional incident.

During the night of 30–31 December, considerable enemy air activity over the sea area of the Channel Islands. Presumably minelaying.
