15th August 1940 Luftwaffe attack on Driffield
Dear all,
On August 15th 1940 Ju88's from KG30 attacked the North East of England and were met by Blenheim's of 219 Squadron over Flamborough Head. I believe that their main target was Driffield. Can anyone provide a copy of any German documents relating to this attack? 219 squadron were gathered for photographs at Catterick when they were scrambled to intercept the raid. I have some information from the RAF side but wanted to try and confirm the numbers and types of the German involvement. One veteran told me that it was Ju88's only but another has said that he remembers seeing He111's as well. Both were involved on the day. Kind regards Gerry
