Re: Ltn Bruno Kahlfuss 2./KG3 shot down 22/23 July 1940
Hi guys

I again return to this incident, since it is of historic importance and deserves a proper conclusion, methinks!

I note that the suggestion that the victim may have been a Blenheim of 107 Squadron, since it was reported missing, but Uffz Hans Busch of 8./JG51 seems to have accounted for this at 17:05 north of Calais!

Powell-Sheddon of 242 claimed a Do17 damaged at dawn was probably one of three aircraft of II/KG2 engaged and damaged by RAF fighters. Why was the aircraft of 2./KG3 not the victim of the FIU Blenheim as suggested by Peter in his tome?

I hope the experts can now clarify?

Cheers
Brian
