Thank you for the replies. By HE 46, you mean Heinkel, right?

I have a 1946 book of a British officer who served with the Partisans in the same area where my father was sheltered by them. The British officer described the planes as "a two-seater Henschel, which used to fly about and drop leaflets and open up with its machine-gun on anyone who was silly enough to stand and stare up at it, or else ladle out pocketfuls of anti-personnel bombs, zooming a few hundred feet above the ground, fired at by everything our chaps could bring to bear."
My father was Richard W. Bridges. He was in the 44th Bomb Group, 66th Squadron, when he was shot down in October 1943 over Wiener Neustadt, Austria.
