El Firdan (LG116) raid on 25.6.1942
Hi all,
according to the RAF ORB the airfield was attacked by German nigh fighter/bomber at 00.10, attacked by bombs, than several strikes and finally was shot down by RAF nigh fighter. As I am not so familiar with the North Africa area could anybody help me with: 1) Luftwaffe plane + crew attacking the airfield 2) RAF plane + crew who shot down the previous one? Any ideas much appreciated. TIA Pavel
