Re: 1. & 3./33 on 23 August 1942.

Hello Martin,
I have the complete history of the 3/33 but as I'm away from my files at the moment I'll have to go from memory.

After returning from Russia, from May to November 1942, the 3/33 were based at Paris/Orly from where they flew reconnaissance sorties over the UK and North Sea until November when they moved; first to Bordeux and then Montpelier. Two August losses for the Staffel which spring to mind were a Ju 88A-5(F) and an 88D-1.

As for the 1/33, during the period May-November 42, IIRC, they were based at Toussus-le-Buc and Istres. As for losses, I can't tell you any for certain until I get back amongst my files. Once I do I'll let you know.

HTH

Regards

Dave
