Karl
The operation for the day was an armed recce Enschede-Munster-Dorsten.
Eight A/C from 127 Sqn were joined by 8 A/C from 66 Sqn.
They took off from B.70 (Antwerp-Deurne ) at 1130.
127 sqn dive bombed a factory at Neede (rA2394).
The ORB states that there were 3 direct hits a chimney was seen to colapse and a railway line was hit and cut.
66 Sqn attacked a train at Burgsteinfurt.
The squadrons landed at B.60 Grimbergen at 1300.
I have a copy of the log book of one of the pilots on this op and it confims the destruction of the Bf109. Copy attached.
