Re: Aircraft shot down 28 May 1941
Stig,
My German is not so good but from page 66 ''Im Versammlungsraum in ca. 3800m hohe, in Sicht eines nach Norden ablaufenden Kreuzers wird er durch eine beaufighter abgeschossen''.
I thought this translates as- in the assembly areas at a height of 3800m in sight of a Cruiser heading northwards was he through a Beaufighter shot down ( any correction appreciated).
The Q.M's list show the cause and the place of loss of this Ju88 as unknown, three crew are shown as missing but it looks like the body of the Bs was recovered.
Would Radtke have access to diaries/NVM etc which might have more information about the loss of Heinrich's aircraft.
Just to add to the problem I believe W/C Gleed and F/O Watson in Hurricanes of 87 Sqd ( up from St.Marys Bay Scilly Islands ) claimed a Ju88 at low level as a probable, 60 miles south of the Scillies this day,
Regards
