Help with Two Bf 109 losses 1940
Could anyone help with details of the career of Oblt Hans-Benno von Schenk prior to his loss on 29-10-1940 ? I believe he became St.Kap.of 5(S)/LG 2 around June 1940 but apart from his loss details I have no other info., additionally is there a photo of him in any book .
Has the cause of the loss of Oblt. Siegfried Stronk of 8/JG 53 on 2-10-1940 been established. I know he crashed into a house at Biggin Hill and from combat reports of pilots credited in books on the period with shooting him down I could not see a definite victor. Was he hit by A.A. from Biggin Hill itself ,this being a suggestion from a local resident some years ago. Once again is there a photo of this pilot, Thanks in Advance, Brian Bines
