ME 110 of NJG shot down 15/16 June 1941
Good night for all!
I am doing some researches and come around a claim from a 218 Squadron´s Wellignton gunner on the night of 15/16 June 1941, returning from a Raid on Hannover. The Wellington was flying close to Amsterdam when attacked by a German Night Fighter Me 110. I checked the losses for NJG 1 and found no record for the date. There is any loss on this date for a NJG 2 or NJG 3 machine? The gunner claimed two bursts into the fuselage; and, on the last attack the enemy night-fighter was seen to brake his attack and glide down with the starboard engine on fire. So the gunner was "credited" with the kill. Thanks in advance for any DATA on the subject. Friendly as ever Adriano |
