Aberdeen, 12th July 1940
Would anyone know what unit lost an He-111 over Aberdeen on the 12th of July 1940?
This aircraft was shot down by a Spitfire of (I believe) 603 squadron and crashed into the new ice rink being built on south anderson drive. Any details of crew appreciated, who were buried initially in Dyce Old Churchyard before being relocated to Derbyshire after the war. |
