The hydraulic gear and the starboard inner propeller were damaged; the electrical circuits were also damaged, causing a failure of the lighting and heating systems. In no way deterred, Flight Lieutenant Ludford flew on to the target and made a successful attack, afterwards flying safely to base with bomb doors open. This officer displayed praiseworthy courage and determination. He has completed many sorties, including 8 attacks on Berlin."
