Galland's recollections from 21st June 1941

Hi,

I am looking for the original (German) version of Galland's recollection about the sortie when he was shot down on 21th June 1941. By google books I managed to get almost full paragraph from 1953 edition, but one part is missing (marked as "missing part"). Could anybody having access to the German version of his "Die Ersten und die Letzten" fill this gap?

Mein Verband schlaegt sich inzwischen mit den Spitfires und Hurricanes herum. Wir sind die einzigen Deutschen, die im Augenblick am Bomberverband.... [missing part]dammt nahe an meiner Kabine voruber.

Best regards
Wojtek

Hi Wojtek.
Die Ersten und die Letzen page 126

Mein Verband schlägt sich inzwischen mit den Spitfires und Hurricanes herum. Wir sind die einzigen Deutschen, die im Augenblick am Bomberverband sind. Ich greife sofort zum zweitenmal an. Wieder kann ich durch die Jäger hindurchstoßen. Diesmal muß eine Blenheim aus der vordersten Kette dran glauben. Flammen und schwarzer Rauch schlagen aus ihrem rechten Motor. Sie schert aus dem Verband aus. Ich sehe, wie sich zwei Fallschirme öffnen. Es ist 12:36 Uhr. Abschuß Nr.69.
Doch jetzt "riechen die Spitfires an der Hose". Leuchtspur zischt verdammt nahe an meiner Kabine vorüber.
