KG 2 D-Day losses
Hi,
As I know on night 6/7 June 1944 KG 2 carried out force of 12 Ju 188 and 9 Do 217. (See Do 217 book by M. Griehl). Flugzeugunfälle und Verluste bei den (fliegende) Verbänden claimed that three a/c were lost: one of 8./KG 2 (Chateaudun), one III/KG2 (Gilze-Rijen) and one of 3./KG 2 (Kanal küste/Channel Coast). Have you any other informations about KG 2 losses, like type of planes (1 Ju 188 and two Do 217 ???), names of crews or WerkNummers? |
