Re: Hptm Gerhard Schashke, III./ZG76
I was looking at the claim for the 12Jun41 of a "Hudson" and checked Ross McNeill's volume 1 "Royal Air Force Coastal Command Losses of the Second World War"
12Jun41
206 Sqn Hudson IV AE614 VX-J pilot AF Sharp was shot down over the North Sea by either Fw. Metzler or Staffelkapitian Leesmann, both of I/JG52. No other Hudson's for that day. But it does have two Blenheim IV shot down in the North Sea area by Me-110 (no unit given)
235 Sqn Blenheim IV T1955 LA-G pilot MR Stephens & crew (KIA)
off Norway.
248 Sqn Blenheim IV T2121 WR-J Sgt EL Holmes & crew (MIA)
off Denmark.
