5.(F)/122
On 20 May 1940 this unit lost the Do 17P with the crew of Uffz. Karl Beyer.
Most probably shot down by Sgt. Whitby. I’m looking for the names of the other 2 crewmembers. Possibly the BO and BF. Thanks in advance. Kind regards, Dirk

Re: 5.(F)/122
From ULTRA intercepts for 20 May 1940:
The Ic (Intelligence Officer) of II. Fliegerkorps reported that the day’s reconnaissance had revealed heavy traffic retreating from Northern France to the Seine and Paris areas. Transport trains and road junctions had been bombed and there had been no response by hostile fighters. Of the 268 sorties dispatched, six aircraft had been shot down; of these, three He 111 had been lost over enemy territory and one Do 17 was a total loss in the German-held area.
