A He 111 lost by Rethymnon
Hi,
I received recently this interesting pic of a destroyed He 111 during the battle of Crete, belonging to 6./K.G. 26. The plane landed on 20.05.41 safely by Rethymnon (Missiria) but soon was burned due to Australian fighters. The crew survived. FF. Ofw. Willi Tönnesmann, He 111 (1H+MP, W.Nr. 3953) 100% mit BO. Oblt.
