andy bird is an unknown quantity at this point
I./KG55 He. IIIH G1+EK 23/08/40 Damaged.

Friday 23 August, a trio of fighter Blenheims take-off to defend Thorney Island against an attack by Heinkels, they drove them off.

Pilot Officer Jackson-Smith attacks one of the He III's writing, Aerodrome Protection - HE III attacked, 2000 rounds. I therefore wonder if the aircraft was from I./KG55 and if so is there a small percentage chance that it may have been the a/c flown by Obw Heinze and Obw Weis that force landed near Le Havre.

Having spoken with 'Jacko' he recalls 'he left it - in a bad way heading for France'

Yours Faithfully,

Andy Bird
