30 April 1943 - loss of 5 Ju52s
 

Can anyone help please.

I am researching a specific incident on the night of 30 April/1 May 1943, when a 600 Squadron Beaufighter shot down 5 Ju52s between 0455 hours and 0505 hours, over the Mediterranean, approximately 30 miles south of Cagliari. I have a lot of information from the RAF side. Can anyone please direct me to where I can find out further information concerning the German side.

With thanks

Steve Darlow

Thanks Remi

I have the respective 600 Squadron combat report. It was a particularly devastating attack - five transports shot down on one sortie.

Can I ask you the source of your information please Remi. I would like to find out more about who was on the transports.

Thanks again

Steve
