Booty and Agent V1c (Blue Briefing)
0530 hrs
Winds from the W @ 2 m/s. Heavy Cloud at 6700m
- This mission is based on historical events (well, kind of):
- On 12 July the early morning was tainted by showers and grey, overcast skies. Two large convoys set out, one near the Thames Estuary steaming south west off the Essex coast (going SW towards the Thames in this mission), codenamed BOOTY and another off North Foreland, codenamed AGENT. Both the Luftwaffe and Regia Aeronautica (Italian Air Force) made concerted efforts against the convoy BOOTY. 17 Squadron took off from RAF Debden to patrol the alongside the convoy. While en route, the pilots were warned of a raid and No. 85 from Martlesham, 242 Squadron, led by Bader, from Coltishall and six Boulton Paul Defiants from 264 Squadron based at RAF Duxford and eleven Hurricanes of 151 Squadron from North Weald were rushed to the area as reinforcements. The attacking formation—two Staffeln of II./KG 2 Do 17s and Staffeln of III./Kampfgeschwader 53 (KG 53 or Bomber Wing 53)—were intercepted by 17 Squadron and attacked at 08:48 as the Germans began to drop their bombs. One He 111 fell as did a Do 17, which carried Hauptmann and Staffelkapitän Machetzki who was killed with his crew. The bombers depended on tight formation to protect themselves and intense accurate fire damaged several Hurricanes and shot down two, killing one pilot from 85 Squadron. Total German casualties amounted to two He 111s and two Do 17s. Some of BOOTY's trawlers rescued German aircrew despite the falling bombs.[63][67] A further He 111 from Stab./KG 55 fell to Spitfires while on armed reconnaissance. One crew member was killed.
- Nevertheless, the convoys incurred penalties. British steamer Hornchurch (2,162 GRT), from Convoy FS.19, was sunk and the crew rescued by patrol sloop Widgeon. British steamer Josewyn (1,926 GRT) was damaged 8 miles (13 km) west, northwest of St. Catherine's Point.
- Having missed the chance to attack AGENT, Luftflotte 3 sent out more reconnaissance He 111s and Do 17s to track shipping. A He 111 from KG 55 was lost during the afternoon against 43 Squadron Hurricanes and the Luftwaffe failed to find and attack any more convoys. Later that night Geschwaderkommodore Alois Stoeckl led KG 55 on a night attack against Cardiff that night without loss.
