Thanks for these additions Martin, I had detailed the 1./NJG6 Bf110 G-4 at Opheusden in the manuscript of the NCA but somehow overlooked it when I was working on the map for this night. The Steinamanger crash was not related to British Main Force operations to Courtrai, Homberg and Bottrop on 20-21 July 1944, that's why I did not list it in this context.

As yet I have not been able to ascertain the identity of the Allied intruder that shot down the Bf110 at Opheusden.

Cheers, Theo
