Re: 30 June 1940
I was in touch with David Hawkins some years ago. His account says that there were just 3 Blenheims of 107 Sqn & their target was an airfield near St Omer but they never reached the target. They were intercepted at low level just short of the target by 4 Bf 109s. They were meant to have an escort but never saw them. Their loss matches well with Ihlefeld 's claims
