Re: Minelaying He 111s of 9./KG40, March 1942.

Martin,

My notes on this one refer to a Flypast article on this crew in July 1987, from the notes I made the mission is shown as convoy attack. The Fighter Command summary (AIR16/236) shows :-Day 21st. March - a single e/a carried out an extensive recon. of Eire and Northern Ireland. Night 20/21st March - A few e/a operated in the S/W. Shipping was attacked off Newquay and some bombs were dropped in Cornwall. Not much I am afraid and I cannot find the Flypast article, probaly in the loft,

Regards

Brian Bines
