Re: What unit escorted the Ju 88 R "defection"?
Hello Skyraider!
From what I do know, the Captain was indeed a MI6/SIS spy and from what I do have read, it seems he landed a Dornier Do 217 early in 1942 to deliver some special bags full of documents. I tried to find out the truth about those secret landings, but NEVER came around an authentic account of it.
What I do know however is that the father of the Hauptmann in question had contacts with Allied agents. It seems that he even transmited a radio message ( Propaganda ) later, after have landed ( I do not have my personal material with me right now, so please forgive me being so vague, ok? I contacted several Historians about that fact and do have a large amount of information, but at home, some 250km away from where I am now flying...You will have to wait a couple of days for my full reply ).
However, perhaps other acknowledged Historians do have more to say about that flight and that of the misteryous Dornier Do 217 landing at UK!
Yours very friend and sincerely
Adriano Baumgartner
