Thanks a lot! Much appreciated Michel The Fulmars were in combat with III./KG 30 and recce Ju 88's (from 1.(F)/121 ?). These actions were far to the southeast from the Gulf of Taranto, were 6./LG 1 aircraft was lost "Air War For Yugoslavia, Greece And Crete" is a great book and still useful but it is 30 years old now
