Circus N° 20 23 June 1941

[Erik Mombeeck]

Hello to all,

we are now checking a few last things before to start the lay-out of JG 2 volume 2 (1941).

Face to the amount of confirmed claims by JG 2 and JG 26 at the evening of 23 June 1941 (no less than 5 Spitfires and 5 Blenheims for JG 2 as well as 5 Spitfires and 1 Blenheim for JG 26), I wonder if I have not missed a few losses at the RAF side.
I found :
_ two Blenheims (V5517 and V6195) of N° 107 Squadron
_ two Spitfires (R6761 and P7975) of N° 93 and 485 Sq
as well as the Spitfire (P8330) of N° 303 (Polish) Sq damaged.

An overclaiming isn't, for sure, not very rare, but this one appears to be remarkable. Does anyone have losses that I should have missed?

Thanks in advance for your remarks and best wishes for 2008!
