Comment

1. Having read the article a few times, I finally realised that Hollings and Orr are missing. (I know, I could have discovered that reading the Discussion.) It says in the intro that the fate of the other two is uncertain. Could this be stated in the article as well?
2. Any idea where the final resting places of the dead are? Is there a memorial or a marker to the raid?

1. The fate of Hollings and Orr has never been established added to the aftermath section.
2. The three killed in the raid were buried in the St-Laurent-sur-Mer cemetery on 15 September 1942 (in the aftermath section). Hayes will have been buried in a unmarked grave in the prison which was normal practise from other reading but would be OR to include as its not confirmed anywhere.

Thanks for the review. --Jim Sweeney (talk) 08:18, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
