26 May, 1942 - Holst’s Ju 88 (B3+MH-140212 or 140225) of 1. Staffel, I./KG 54 departs Eleusina with a stopover in Tympaki, Crete, heading toward Libya to provide aerial support for Rommel’s Panzer Armee Afrika as ground forces commence Operation “Theseus.” Upon returning from Africa, as a result of what is later described as a compass malfunction, Leutnant Holst is forced to ditch at sea for want of fuel, by the Greek island of Psathoura (N. Sporades) shortly after 0100 hours on 27 May. Holst and his crew manage to safely reach Psathoura thanks to an inflatable dinghy retrieved from the sinking aircraft.
