Re: Did KG27 bomb Dublin May 1941?
Looked up the Radio Intercepts which did not give any real clues they show the RAF identified attacks on 30/31st May by 8 a/c of III/KG1, 12 of III/KG26, 3 of I/KG27, 9 of III/KG27, 3 of KG28, 11 of II/KG53, 17 of I/KG54, 5 of I/KG55, 27 from II & III/KG76, 13 of II/KG77, 7 of KGr100, 3 of KFG606 and 5 of KFG806. An aircraft of II/KG53 reported dropping its bombs on target no.2 (where-ever that was) and at 0451 hrs aircraft ITIL (KG28?) was given a D/F location as 20 miles S/W of Dublin. Dublin does not seem to be mentioned in the books on KG26, KG53, KG54, KG55 or KG100, so unfotunately no answers at present.
