Hi Nick,

Seven Ju 88 bombers of K.G. 30 and seven He 111 torpedo-bombers of K.G. 26 carried out a combined dusk attack against an enemy convoy in Pl.Qu. 03 Ost/0753. Four Ju 88s achieved no success, one claimed two hits on a merchant vessel of 6,000-8,000 tons, and one Ju 88 claimed a near miss on a merchant vessel of 6,000 tons. One He 111 claimed a 6,000 ton merchant vessel damaged, and another He 111 claimed a 6,000 ton tanker damaged.

Cheers,
Andrew A.
