Re: Ju 88 attack on 7 June 1944
'K' report 263/1944 has a Ju 88 of 3/KG 54 into the sea N/W of Caen at 2300 hrs on the 6th and another of 9/KG54 off the beach head at 0100 hrs on the 7th in 'K' 270/1944. The one on the 6th is shown as targeted to shipping off the Caen beach head having taken off with 10-12 other aircraft from Wittmundhafen at about 2100 hrs on the 6th. The KG 54 history has the loss of 5 aircraft from I/54 and III/54 in an attack on the invasion fleet starting at 1945 hrs on the 6th (daylight?) .'K' 262/1944 has the loss of a Ju 88 of 8/KG26 in the channel with an injured crewman picked up at 0600 hrs on the 7th while on a torpedo attack. Cannot find mention of a daylight attack on the 7th would these 6/7th attacks be what you are looking for,
Regards Brian Bines |
