Who Attacked Convoy UGS 30 - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

Convoy UGS 30 was attacked on 1 February 1944. Chris Goss writes that II/KG 40 (with the Hs 293) was involved in the attack, along with KG 26. He provides subtantial information to validate that position.

Ulf Balke writes that II/KG 100 (also with the Hs 293) was involved in the attack, along with KG 26 and other units of Fliegerdivision 2. Balke's statement is backed up by archival information on KG 100. (Since II/KG 100 was also deployed to Anzio at that time, I'm a little surprised about this. II/KG 40 had been withdrawn from Anzio.)

Did both II/KG 40 and II/KG 100 attack UGS 30 on the evening of 1 February? Can anyone shed light on this?

Thanks

Marty
