Re: Bf-110 ZG76 Shot Down Sullom Voe 23.3.41

You are probable aware of the following information. Unable to find details of 2nd aircraft

www.pooks.plus.com/crashlog
Two 110s appeared over Sullom Voe and machine gunned the village. They were engaged by a Royal Artillery Bofers gun, under the command of Sgt E.Bryson. A direct hit blew the tail off one of the attackers and the aircraft crashed into the water just off Sella Ness. A body was recovered from the wreckage, and the following day, the other body from the sea. The Bf 110 was later recovered from the water. A panel with the German markings on was removed and put on display in the Officers Mess at Sullom Voe.
Crew:- Uffz K.Rudigar (Pilot) and Gefr Georg Reichel (Gunner).
Kind regards
Ross
