Re: 1940: Minengeschoss and MG FF/M cannon (Me 109 and 110)
Three deciphered signals from 1940:
CX/JQ/2
29.5.40
10. On 28/5 ZG 26 was asking for immediate delivery of 26,000 rounds of 2 cm. FFM and a further 4,000 rounds as soon as possible.
CX/JQ/15
2.6.40
26. On 1/6 LG Stab z.b.V. urgently asked that 60,000 rounds of 2 cm FF and FFM ammunition, as well as 300 KC 250 Flak (ammunition ?) should be sent to Guise-Northeast. (B)
CX/JQ/90
27.6.40
T5 1. It was reported about midday 27/6 that III./ZG 26 had landed at aerodrome Barly. It needs FFM ammunition very urgently as the altered Me 110 no longer fires FF ammunition. Same quantity of FFM is required as formerly of FF. (A)
