Earlier, Coastal Command aircraft attacked an enemy supply ship off the Norwegian Coast. No planes were lost in these operations. The crew of one of our bombers which raided Mannheim on Saturday night was rescued from the sea. They had been in their rubber dinghy for 12 hours. An enemy raider was destroyed over this country last night. Another was shot down this morning off the southwest coast.
