Re: Airfield of II./KG 51 june 1944 ?
2 FBs I have say 4/KG 51 was operating from Eindhoven and then Gilze but forwarded based at St Andre. In this case, Ofw Hermann Bolten & Fw Willhelm Lohf got airborne from Ste Andre at 0130 hrs (CET) in 9K+AM only to be shot down by a nightfighter on their return to Ste Andre. Le Long attacked a Me 410 on approach to Ste Andre at 1000'; Bolten baled out at 100m. Time 0148 hrs UK time.
I am sure this clears this up!
