He 111 KG1 18.8.40 Biggin Hill raid.

Hi, could anybody advise on 2 casualties from 1/KG1 following the raid on Biggin Hill 18.8.40. I understand 1 man was killed, another wounded.
Any help appreciated.

Any help regarding KG1's involvement on this mission, who may have led the operation, any known crew members who may have participated on this raid especially welcome!

Best regs,
Steve.
