Re: Hurricane on Crete beach
Just as a side note, in the book "The Luftwaffe:From the North Cape to Tobruk 1939-1945" by Holger Nauroth, there a photograph of the crashed Bf-109E with the caption: "after a massive dogfight [actually shot down by flak] a fighter aircraft of JG-77 was forced to land on the beach at Malemes." Under this picture is one of the same exact Hurricane with the same island in the background with the caption:"A scant 100 metres away on lies the British opponent, a Hawker Hurricane."
