This is what I have:

1/KGr100 - Heinkel He 111H-1 - Failed to return from operational sortie. Exact cause unknown. Lt. Lochbrunner and three NCOs missing. Aircraft a write-off.

August 15th-16th - Night Operations - 1/KGr100 - He111H-4 - Went down in the sea, taking Lt Lochbrunner and his three crew with it. 24 aircraft of KGr100 took off between 20.56 and 23.32 hours for the Midlands. Four aircraft had technical problems... bombs fell near to the Morris Commercial Car Works outside Birmingham where overhead cables were brought down and water and gas mains broken.
