Re: Detail required
Thanks Peter, New Milton in Hampshire was bombed by a lone HE111 on the 23 August 1940 at 18.30 killing 19 civillians and 5 military personel. A number of contempoary witness accounts report a Spitfire flying over the town and chasing the He111 out over the coast twoards the Isle of Wight. Within 10 mins the Spit is reported to have returned completed a "victory roll" over the town before leaving the area. I have hunted for a number of years but can not find a damage / loss for the Luftwaffe that ties in with the time nor a claim from the RAF. Any ideas?
