Hello all,

i am interested if by any chance someone has photos of He-111's of KG 27 stationed on Focsani airfield in July 1941, or nearby periods.

In my book, From Barbarossa to Odessa, vol. 1, page 67, there are two photos and a colour profile of 1G+GL of 3./KG 27, photographed on Focsani-South airfield, in June 1941.

If you don't have access to the book, I will try to scan the page for you.

Many thanks indeed Denes, just checked it from the shelf as i'm at home now, this weekend me and some friends discovered the crash site of one of the He-111's stationed there, i will make a full thread in the next months as there's very interesting info regarding to it to tell, we even found an eye witness that was 9 years old at the time !

Unfortunately the site albeit a bit remote was looted throughout the years extensively...and i quote "Ţiganii fãceau fãraşe din aluminiul fuselajului" ...

Muggs,I like to see your thread which will contain the interesting information of crashed He-111. Please write details you get from the eye witness in the above thread too.

Sure thing, maybe in a month or so we'll be back on site, there's a lot of vegetation now which obstructs the detectors and our exploration.
