Re: 5.(F)/122
From ULTRA intercepts for 20 May 1940:
The Ic (Intelligence Officer) of II. Fliegerkorps reported that the day’s reconnaissance had revealed heavy traffic retreating from Northern France to the Seine and Paris areas. Transport trains and road junctions had been bombed and there had been no response by hostile fighters. Of the 268 sorties dispatched, six aircraft had been shot down; of these, three He 111 had been lost over enemy territory and one Do 17 was a total loss in the German-held area.
