Lt D.W. Gay's War Effort - Pre-Flight Observers's Gen-Sheet

This page from Lt D.W. Gay's 'War Effort' shows the pre-mission sheet prepared by navigators, with details of the route to three targets, expected cloud levels, notes on any expected fighter escort and other useful material.

Many thanks to Martin Hampton, the son in law of Lt. Gay, for sending us this material. These pages come from Gay's own private notebook which began with similar infomation to his flight log, but became more detailed, and also included a number of interesting items that had been pasted in.
