RAF Honington 19 August 1940
Hi guys
RAF Honington was bombed by a single He111 at 16:15 on 19 August 1940, and again by a single Do17 at 20:20. At least five airmen were killed and ten wounded - but were they all casualties of the first raid? The Heinkel was believed to have been an aircraft of 7./KG27, which was later shot down by Spitfires of 66 Squadron from Coltishall, but not before return fire had brought down one of the attackers. Can anyone confirm this version? Has anyone a post raid report? Cheers Brian
