Re: Fw Werner Hahn 3./NJG1 shot down 29 July 1940
Hi Martin
Too late! I ordered 37's ORB for July - and there is a possibility:
"Plt Off Watt, unable to identify the marshalling yard at Hamm, carried out a high level attack on an airfield situated about 25 miles north-east of Hamm (Ennigerloh?). Flying was in progress at the time of the attack and one aircraft was seen just landing or about to land. A stick of bombs was seen to fall across the flare path, causing a fire."
Might this have been Hahn's aircraft? Destroyed on the ground and not shot down in the air? Interesting.
Hopefully someone has further information.
Cheers
Brian
