Hello Chris,

in Larry Donnelly "The Other Few" page 21 is noted:
"The Blenheim fell victim to Oberleutnant Hubertus von Holtey of II./JG 26, who shot it down 10 km southwest of Münster at 14.15 hours."

In JFV Teil 4/I page 310 is noted:
05.07.40 5./JG 26 Oblt. Hubertus von Holtey Blenheim 1st victory 14.15
10 km südwestlich Münster confirmed

Regards
Leo

Thanks both. I now have the location as Senden from another source. Reason why I am asking is I have a photo showing the burnt our remains of a Blenheim with the date 5 Jul 40. However, credit for its destruction is given to Flak
