Re: Do 217 Combat Units of WW2

Hi Chris. Will there be much in the way of NJG units in this work?

Re: Do 217 Combat Units of WW2

There will but limited. Few photos (just ask Theo Boiten!) and hard to match claims to pilots flying the Do 217 without logbooks (for example, II./NJG 101 flew a mixture of Ju 88s and Do 217s and pilots flipped back and forth). Similar are the Nachtaufklstaffel hence my post. Crecy big book hopes to have more on both roles but it is hard. Bombers of KG 2, II./KG 40 and KG 100 are well covered

Also looking forward to both!

The Osprey is supposed to be out in the U.S. on 14 September.

Wow - both much-needed, filling a much overlooked gap.

Finger on the trigger for the Crecy Classic book too, to go on the same shelf as its Do17 forebear's book.
