Re: Special Mission 27 Sep 42

An Enemy Activity Report for the 27th Sept shows an aircraft flying over Plymouth and Penzance in the morning with two Fw 190s flying along the Kent coast in the afternoon and four Fw 190s attacking shipping south of Plymouth at mid day .

The 257 Sqd ORB shows Coombs and Henman as being vectored onto two Ju 88s flying south at 500 ft. at 1225 hrs . They both used all their ammo and broke off as the 88s made it to cloud cover . Both Ju 88s where claimed as damaged with Henman silencing the gunner of the one he attacked.

Would the two 13/KG 40 aircraft and the a.m. flight over Plymouth and Penzance have any connection to the midday Fw 190 shipping attack ?
