Re: He111 Wekusta 51 shot down 12/6/40
Undoubtedly far too late to be of use Brian, but AIR 40/2397 (K-Report No 140/1940) identifies the Heinkel 111 as 4T+BH. Quoting the reference Start and mission: From an aerodrome in Middle Germany, at 0530 hours, on General Reconnaissance. No bombs carried.
The time datum is not given but I believe it to be BST. I think the aerodrome was Roth but am happy to be corrected. Brian |

Hi Brian
Thanks for the memory but, as you say, too late for my work! Perhaps someone else will find it of use. Cheers Brian |
