In this gripping video, journey with me as I unveil a long-lost gem from the depths of the National Archives—a harrowing combat report that brings to light an unimaginable encounter in the turbulent skies of World War II.

I stumbled upon this archived document, a testament to the bravery and skill of the crew aboard N. 9046, a Coastal Command Short Sunderland flying boat.
