Re: STUKA ATTACK DOVER 29TH JULY 1940
Bit of a confusing day. Whilst III/StG 2 attacked Portland that evening, I have Stukas dropping 22 500 kg, 22 250 kg and 176 50 k bombs on ships in Dover Harbour at 0840 hrs, it would appear that 11/LG 1, II/StG 1 were involved. The Germans reported losing 3 Stukas-2 from LG 1 (crews killed I believe) and one from StG 1(crew rescued?). 2 more Stukas were damaged. I am afraid that I do not have crew details (apart from Lt Furnwagner & Oblt Kothe from LG 1) an dthe QMG's Returns did not record codes of Wk Nrs at this early stage of the war.
