210890 F/Lt. Neil Duncan Nimmo DFC.Royal Air Force 101 Squadron from:Edgeware The Story of 101 Sqd Q-Queenie, lost on the Aulnoye-Aymeries raid 10/ 11 April 1944, of her pilot Flt/ Lt Neil Nimmo, of the crew and of the other 6 Lancasters shot down that night by Hpt Helmut Bergmann and what happened to their crews, is now told in "Perilous Moon: Occupied France, 1944 - The End Game" by Neil Nimmo's son Stuart Nimmo, published world wide by Casemate Philadelphia and Oxford, November 2012. The book covers what happened to Neil Nimmo, his experiences with the French resistance as the Occupation came to a sticky end. The book discovers who Luftwaffe pilot Hpt Helmut Bergmann Rc was, how he became what he was, and what happened to him during the same period. The book is lavishly illustrated with previously unpublished original photographs, illustrations and British and German documents. It contains much detailed information on what happened that night, is told from both sides, and contains information about Bergmann's other Lancaster victims that night. I would willingly type the information here on this important site, but it is simply too extensive, and is newly published. I simply point out that for those who wish to know more the book now exists and for those who do not wish to buy it, it will probably be available in libraries before long.
