First Luftwaffe victory over RAF
I am interested in the circumstances surrounding the destruction of two 9 Squadron Wellington bombers on September 4, 1939.
One was shot down by Flak off Brunsbuettel, and the other destroyed by Sergeant Alfried Held in a Bf-109 of II/JG77 operating out of Fliegerhorst Nordholz.
Can anyone please help me with information about either or both of these events which surely constitute the first Luftwaffe victories in WWII.
