Re: Eagle Days: Life and Death for the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain

Thanks Nick, I think the reference to Ju 87 was supposed to be Ju88, in particular a four aircraft section from 1/KG30, one of which 'sank' HMS Ark Royal (according to Joseph Goebbels) two years before she was torpedoed in the Med!

I know that Stukas were used to bomb British Convoys in the Channel, circa July 1940, but was their attack on 18th August 1940, the one and only attack by Stukas OVER the UK?
