Munkeskov drop zone
The parachutes open and slowly descend onto the drop zone where the reception team is waiting.
Intro
The plane flew over the drop zone without making an airdrop. The drop zone and the reception group were shot at by German night fighters, but no one was hit. No airdrop was made and as the drop zone had been identified by the Germans, the drop zone was abandoned.
