Re: He111P Lost 10.5.40 poss KG55
Good morning Peter,
Many thanks for your information on the He111 loss 10.5.40.
However, after carefully studying the photograph, i have of this a/c, i now believe its an a/c of 8/KG55. One can just make out either a letter G or C and then 8 Staffels S! after the balkenkreuz.
Having checked all my sources beforehand, i cannot find a loss attributed to 8/KG55 on this date. Surprisingly, the best publication for this period,
" Twelve Days in May" doesnt even list any casualties for KG55 on this day! and " Blitzed" by Air Research, by Victor Bingham lists some 9 a/c shot down around Touel and Nancy, with 3x III/ KG55 a/c downed at Xaffeuilliers?
Do you have any III/ KG55 losses Peter, for the 10.5.40.
Best regs,
Steve.
