Four a/c's sounds good because in his log are mentioned in Rennes, Dinard and Morlaix only C9+AU, C9+MU, C9+PU and C9+QU (and at first R4+DU - the Ju 88 he transfered from Lechfeld) ... and Bonow signed with "Schwarmf." (Schwarmführer).

Hello/Bonjour Larry and Rasmussen,

Another evidence in favour of this hypothesis is that I also noticed that during an attack on Morlaix airfield May 16, 1943, one man killed and two injured, their unit is noted as: I. Schwarm 10./NJG 5

Best regards,
Frederic
