Re: Info on force-landed G1+KS of 8./KG55 during FC
Larry,
I don't have a specific G1+KS to match.
On May 15, as you suggest, III./KG55 made two repeated attacks on the Thionville area. During the first mission, around 05.30 a.m., the Heinkels were attcked by GC II/5, which damaged some of them without being able to confirm. However, one a/c returned damaged 5%, and one made a forced landing near Trier in Germany, being 60% damaged.
If your date of May 15 is correct, this could be the one.
During the second mission no a/c were lost.
Otherwise I wouldn't know.
Regards, Pieter
