Luftwaffe losses: NE England, July-August 1940
The War Diary of 43 AA Brigade suggests three Luftwaffe losses over NE England in July-August 1940 as follows: night of 16/17 July 1940 - a Heinkel crashed into the sea off Redcar; night of 23/24 July 1940 - an enemy aircraft shot down 12 miles off the river Tees; 12/13 August 1940, a plane seen crashing into sea c.5 miles off Cloughton, N of Sarborough. The Diary claims that each sighting was confirmed by at least two sources - but Luftwaffe Loss Records reveal nothing that matches the claims. Anyone got any ideas?
