Re: Lw airman rescued 8 August 1940

Hptmn Waldemar PLEWIG the Gruppenkommandeur of Stab II./StG77 is a good candidate for, as far as I know, he was one of only two Lw airmen rescued from the Channel by British vessels on the day and both landed at Portsmouth. The other was Oberlt Martin MULLER the Gruppenadjutant of Stab I./StG3 but he was picked up by HMS Bassett. My only reservation is that I believe MTB68 was with the 10th Flotilla based at HMS Beehive at Felixstowe. Maybe our naval experts can clarify ?
