Me 410A-1 9K+HM 4420654 FF Hpt. Werner Durr (umlaut over u) Bf Fw. Walter Heinemann MIA
Me410 A-1 9K+IM 420200 FF FjUffz Karl-Heinz Mond ,Bf Uffz.Hugo Hagel MIA

These are shown as being on an intruder misssion to Region C. Me410's attacked B-24s of 34th.BG shortly after dusk shooting three down. There is also a combat report for a claim for a Me410 60 miles off Happisburgh by F/L Greaves with F/O Robbins at 0140hrs 7/8th June which would appear to be well after the B-24s were attacked,
