Re: Ju88 attack July 1942 New Mills, Hatfield, Chatsworth House
The intelligence reports say fighters were responsible for both. Unit was based at Dinard but refuelled at Brest. Route took them up Irish Sea & then they would have landed at Soesterburg. Bf 110s were not operating in this role since early 1941 and in any case was well outside their range. I am afraid the plaque information is therefore totally wrong even down to the target. I am now away off & on until May so if you want to get in touch then, I will see what I can do
