Re: First bombing raid on Chichester Feb 1943 - RFI

Info comes from Luftwaffe records and published German unit histories. Of interest, a month after, a Do 217 was shot down by a nightfighter whilst attacking Southampton. The 2 German survivors came down by parachute near to Bordon so I wonder if your Grandfather's diary has a mention as they were captured by Canadian troops. From memory the date was 8 March 43
