He 111 Wk Nr 2626
Does anyone have a record of a He 111, presumably a P-2, with the Wk Nr 2626 in KG 27 in 1941?

Michael
Many thanks. The photo I have shows the tail showing the 2626 and the markings are heavily toned down (but not the tail). No date on the photo but it does say Rennes. There are leaves on the trees so this should mean Summer 1940 Chris
