4/JG77and 3/ZG76 Norway 13 June 1940

Hi guys

On 13 June 1940, 15 FAA Skuas from 'Ark Royal' attempted to bomb the 'Scharnhorst' in Trondheimfjord. Eight of the Skuas were shot down by Bf109s of 4/JG77 (two by Arnoldy, one each by Sawallisch, Harbach and Froba) and 3/ZG76 (one each by Gollob, Krzywon, Kohler and Schob).

1) Firstly, has anyone any reports from the German side? Overall combat report, individual combat reports? Memoirs/accounts?

2) Is there any mention of this action in Gordon Gollob's biography? If so, would someone kindly scan this for me? A mention in desptaches will be forthcoming!!

3) I am lacking first names for Harbach, Froba, Krzywon and Kohler.

Anything from the German side acceptable, please!!

Thanks in advance and fingers crossed.
Cheers
Brian
