Re: Hptm.Kuekens St.kapitan 3/KG3 loss.

Yes, a particularly difficult set of NVMs to interpret with any confidence. The only differences to your listing I would suggest are as follows:

7./KG3 Dornier Do17Z (3329). Shot down by fighters during sortie to attack Manston 12.20 p.m. FF Lt Heinz Sachse killed, - BF Uffz Heinz Henning, and BM Uffz Theodor Oerter both wounded - admitted to hospital in Hardinghen, HS Gefr Karl Pott slightly wounded. Aircraft 5K+GR 100% write-off.

7./KG3 Dornier Do17Z (3602). Crash-landed at Calais-Marck badly damaged by fighters following attack on Manston 12.20 p.m. BO Uffz Horst Pässler slightly wounded In head and chest, rest of crew unhurt. Aircraft 100% write-off.

7./KG3 Dornier Do17Z-3 (2822). Forced-landed at Merville out of fuel following sortie to attack Manston 12.20 p.m. BO Gefr August Meyer and BF Obergefr Konrad Kniesburges both slightly wounded - admitted to hospital in Lille, rest of crew unhurt. Aircraft damage state not recorded.
