Operation Archery 27/12/41
Were four He111's lost during operations against this Commando raid? The supporting RAF suffered heavy losses; out of 42 aircraft taking part, 11 failed to return (seven Blenhiem's, two Hampdens and two Beaufighters), but I don't have any comfirmation of the actual Luftwaffe losses, any ideas?
Thanks for any help Steve |
