At 8.40 P.M. the Abersoch coastguard reported that the R.A.F. at Penrhos had seen flares eastwards of St. Tudwall’s Island, at 9 P.M. that an aeroplane was down in the sea, and at 9.15 P.M. that a motor launch, H.M.S. Glendower, belonging to the camp, which had put out at 1 P.M. with a party of Wrens and sailors aboard, had not returned. At 10 P.M. the motor life-boat C. and S. was launched. A moderate easterly wind was blowing, with a slight sea. At 10.30 P.M. the life-boat saw flares, and four and a half miles S.W. of the life-boat station she found the motor launch with her engine broken down. She took her in tow, with the party of seven onboard, and reached Pwllheli at 11 P.M. She was ready to go out again in search of the aeroplane, but the call was cancelled as it had been found that no aeroplane was missing. - Rewards, £11 14s..
