Bf110s 7./LG2 Greece 1941

Hi guys

I believe that two Bf110s of 7./LG2 shot down a Blenheim over Greece on 18 April 1941. Has anyone the names of the German crews, please?

Cheers
Brian

Hi guys

The Bf110s may have been from II/ZG26.

Can anyone help, please?

Cheers
Brian

I have nothing from II/ZG 26, but one Blenheim claim about 11:00 by Ltn. Ferdinand Glanz of 8./ZG 26.

Hi GRM and all

It seems that 8./ZG26 was NOT responsible for the Blenheim shot down over Greece on 18 April 1941 after all.

Any ideas, please.

Cheers
Brian
