Re: Algiers raid, evening of 13 January 1943
Laurent,
From HW13/110 - KG 60 and III./KG 30 intended target Maison Blanche. Report comments that these units were cancelled from ops due to weather conditions.
Appears British intelligence believed that KG 26 also took part. However, there is a cryptic comment "To operate according to recce results" & "Recce results apparently did not justify operation"
Elsewhere in HW13/110 there is a sortie by a Ju 88 of 1.(F)/122 that was monitored as it operated from Elmas towards Algiers and back between 15.00 and 19.55 hrs Z - the report mentions the attack on Maison Blanche at 18.55 hrs.
