Bombing of New Milton Hampshire 23/08/40
At approx 18.00 on the 23rd of August 1940, a lone He111 dropped its load on Station Road, New Milton, Hampshire killing 19 civillians and 5 servicemen. Can anyone tell me which units were operating over the Southampton / New Forest areas on that day? The Blitz Then and Now is unable to assist. Thanks
