Raids over southern England 19/8/42

Can anybody provide any additional information on the Luftwaffe raids over Southern England in repsonse to the Dieppe raid.

The Fighter Command ORB noted that an estimated 45 bombing sorties targeted the area. Bombs appear to have fallen around Portsmouth, Southampton, Winchester and the Solent.

Three KGr106 Ju88's were lost and a KG77 Ju88 suffered 60% damage, but it has so far proved difficult to identify the results (if any) of these raids.

Any help or ideas for sources gratefully received.

Regards,

Steve
