Flak Claims
I'm trying to discover the document that lists Luftwaffe flak claims for the 19th August 1942.
I believe they are contained in the category 'RL40' at Bundesarchiv, but using the Invenio search engine I've not been able locate it. Any ideas what name I should try searching with? Regards, Steve |

Re: Flak Claims
You have to look at RL 5.

I am looking for claims made by Flakuntergruppe Dieppe in response to the Dieppe raid. By my reckoning the Allied forces had 36 aircraft shot down by ground fire, so I was hoping to find some details of claims made by the German defenders. As far as I can see the units involved were; schwere Flak-Abteilung 345 leichte Flak-Abteilung 81(mot) leichte Flak-Abteilung 690 (v) leichte Flak-Abteilung 732 (v) Sadly looking through the Bundesarchiv search function I can't see any reports from these units for this date, so I guess the documents I was hoping to find are lost.

Re: Flak Claims
In terms of other files which may yield something for you, from a quick search it looks like it might be worth thinking about:
RL 20/106 RL 20/166 RL 7-3/596 RL 10/649 RL 13/21 RL 24/140 RM 7/1756 - 1760 |

I'd tried looking for the individual units, sadly the only documents I could find for any of them was from 1944. Regards, Steve |

Re: Flak Claims
All of these have something from 1942. Unfortunately, it's impossible to say exactly what but that's the thrill of the chase.
