Re: Ltn Bruno Kahlfuss 2./KG3 shot down 22/23 July 1940
Hi Col
Thanks for the lead. Any chance of scans of the relevant pages? I don't have this book in my 1000+ collection! Chris: Another extract from Ashfield's combat report: "After about six minutes E/A sighted by observer P/O Morris to port and just below. A little H/T was lost placing E/A between the moon and ourselves. By fuselage silhouetted against moon A/C identified as Do17. No challenge given by us. I took station astern and although unable to see rudders characteristic, the light of exhaust flame distribution from E/A confirmed to my mind that A/C was not British." Seems as though they identified their victim as a Do17! Cheers Brian briancullauthor@fsmail.net |
