|  Loss of Heinkel He 111s on 27 May 1941 I would be grateful if anyone can give me further details on the planes, crew and mission of the following planes believed to have been shot down off west Cornwall on the night of 27/28th May 1941: A Heinkel He 111 shot down in the sea 1 mile E of Mousehole. No further details known. A Heinkel He 111 3867 or 3067, G1 + AM, from 4/KG55 shot down in the sea off Gurnard's Head. It is thought they were on an anti-shipping mission off Land's End and were with 2 or possibly 3 other planes where they successfully bombed HMS Registan off Cape Cornwall. Any information gratefully welcomed. |
