Re: Ju 88 KGr 806 - 21 August 1940
Anyway this three-element section was targeting St. Eval airfield. One diverted due to weather and attacked at 16.30 hrs harbor facilities of Penzance - did one returned safely to base.
Bridlington? Probably 1 crew out of three-element section of 9./KG53 reported to have attacked harbor facilities in Bridlington in the late afternoon. In fact one He 111 of this section - it was ordered to fly armed reconnaissance between Humber Estuary and Flamborough Head - was shot up by English fighters and later crashed in sea radioing a distress call from LQ 05 East/2432 (approx. 100 miles E of Flamborough Head).
