#102 Ceylon Squadron (Tentate Et Pericite). Halifax aircraft # JN 909 was shot down at Saerbeck, Germany during operations against Berlin, Germany. Four crew members were killed, two were taken Prisoner of War and one was safe in neutral territory. Flight Sergeant Air Gunner McClay was buried in the Catholic cemetery at Saerbeck, exhumed and reburied in the Reichswald Forest War Cemetery.

The raid of 622 aircraft (331 Lancasters, 176 Halifaxes, 106 Stirlings and 9 Mosquitoes) took off from RAF Base Pocklington, Yorkshire at 20:21 hrs on August 31, 1943. Due to cloud in the target area, difficulties with H2S equipment and the ferocity of the German defences, the raid was not successful. These all combined, caused the Pathfinder markers to be dropped well south of the centre of the target area and the main bombing area to be even further away.
Halifax JN909 is believed to be shot down by Flak (a German aircraft-defence cannon), crashing between the communities of Sinningen and Saerbeck.
