Re: Break down of Lw losses during BoB
Franek
My friend Geoffrey Sinclair has made a try which I enclose here.
Unfortunately the tabulation does not work out properly. I have tried to fix it when I copy his data.
Not sure it works however after I press send....
The various Battle of Britain books have their summaries and more
detailed loss listings. For a start these are the Luftwaffe loss
numbers from the RAF publication of the Luftwaffe Quartermaster records,
which are reproduced in The Narrow Margin by Wood and Dempster
\ as column separator, Destroyed \\ damaged.
