Re: He111 shot down by No 1 Squadron, 03/03/1940.

Sorry guys - I've been away in Belgium enjoying the moules. Here are details of the He111 you asked about:

3.(F)/121Heinkel He111H. Both engines damaged in attacks by P/O Brown and Sgt Soper of No.1 Squadron during reconnaissance sortie south and west of Metz. Belly-landed south of Forbach 12.00 p.m. Obergefr A. Peter and Uffz G. Hedtke killed. Uffz F. Nagel wounded in left thigh, admitted to hospital in Salzbach. Aircraft a write-off.
