night 16/17 September 1944
On 17 September 1944 at 03.15 hrs, Flak commander Flushing received message from the Seekommandant that 6 He 111's were to fly over between 03.00 and 04.00 hrs, with an expected return between 05.00 - 06.00 hrs. My question is what unit this could have been and what about the task (supply, mine-laying) they were expected to carry out?
At the same night but a little earlier, at 01.50 hours, F/L Edinger of 410 Sqn claimed an unidentified a/c over Walcheren Island, which crashed into sea during violent turns in trying to escape the Mosquito.
Who can help me in identifying these a/c and crews?
