So I Descended Pegal Burn

Junkers Ju88A-1 coded 4D+EK of 1/KG25 (Formerly 1/KG30) crashed at the mouth of Pegal Burn on the Isle of Hoy on the 17th October 1939

 

This aircraft was the first German aircraft to be brought down on British soil. Brought down by the AA guns at H6 Rysa Bay Lodge, where my grandfather arrived later. Video here: https://youtu.be/SyOz-zole7g

Between fire and salt water, I’m impressed there’s anything left for you to find. Well tracked down!
