Re: He111 3./KuFlGr.806 lost 20/3/40
Brian,
Maybe the internet ? But my guess is that your misinformation probably stems from someone simply misreading the NVM which also lists a 1./KuFlGr.806 crew lost on April 3, 1940, reported landed from a dinghy by the military attache in Denmark.
Stig,
Just so. My original source for the codes M7+LE as quoted in BoFrT&N was Illusies En Incidenten (1988) p123 which also mentions the M7+LF of the same unit circling the men in their dinghy. The authors' source for this is quoted as BMA: RM 118/146, KTB 3./806. RM 118/8, KTB KFlGr 106. But given the Staffel, and the usual Lw convention on codes, the balance of evidence suggests M7+EL & FL as probably being more correct ?
