2./JG3 and Stab/KG28 11 June 1940
Hi guys
I believe that Bf109s of 2./JG3 were escorting Do17s of Stab/KG28 on 11 June 1940 and were engaged by Hurricanes of 111 Squadron off Folkestone (or at least over the Channel). Is it correct that two Bf109s and two Do17s were shot down? Details please! Cheers Brian
