He59 operating off Isle of Wight August 1940
Hi guys
During August 1940 it was reported that an ASR He59 operated off the Isle of Wight with immunity, often within sight of a Walrus carrying out similar duties. What do we know about this? Was it always the same aircraft - presumably painted white with Red Cross markings? Who were the crew and unit? Did they carry out any rescue/recovery sorties? If so, whom? The Walrus crew apparently picked some 35 British and German airmen during the same period. Any help appreciated. Cheers Brian Last edited by BrianC; 10th September 2024 at 18:45. Reason: typo
