Lüwengeschwader's Big Bang by as ALEXANDER STEENBECK [1]

KAMPFGESCHWADER (KG) 26, known as Lüwengeschwader 'the Lion Wing' is one of the most famous Luftwaffe units of the Second World War. What is much less well known, however, is that this distinguished bomber and anti-shipping unit, which fought on all fronts of the European theatre during the conflict, lost an entire Staffel (squadron) during the early days of the Polish campaign without even getting off the ground.

Following mobilisation on August 24, 1939, II Gruppe of KG 26 (II./KG 26) moved east from its home base at Lüneburg in northern Germany, via Werneuchen (near Berlin), to the small airfield at Gabbert, near the Polish border, where the unit waited for Germany's declaration of war. As bombs were loaded into most of the 32 Heinkel He 111s that formed the Gabbert detachment, the unit's armourers discovered that many of the bombs were getting stuck in the bomb adapter; the bomb's attachment screws were too long and poked out of the casing. The solution was simple: the screws were filed down flush with the casing. When this had been done, the unit was once again ready for action.

Boom! [1]

On September 1, 1939 the opening day of the Second World War II./KG 26 flew its first missions to Posen and other Polish towns to bomb railway stations and other targets. The unit suffered no losses a situation that was to change dramatically three days later.

On September 4 the fifth Staffel of KG 26 (5./KG26) was scheduled to fly a late-afternoon sortie to Lodz. As groundcrews prepared the machines,around 1715hr an armourer was finishing up the loading of SC 10 bombs into He 111 1H+LN; Leutnant Ludwig Baum of 4./KG 26 recalls what happened next: 'We were resting in one of the huts when suddenly a massive explosion threw us from our beds. At first we thought that the Polish Army was attacking us, but when we got out of the hut and ran to the airfi eld we saw a huge trail of smoke coming from an He 111.'

So what had happened? The armourer working on 1H+LN had dropped one of the armed 12kg (25lb) SC 10s. The resulting explosion detonated the other bombs already loaded aboard the bomber. Further explosions followed as nearby bombs on the ground detonated owing to the pressure wave. Then things went from bad to worse. The Heinkel had 2,000lit (440gal) of highly infl ammable fuel in its tanks, which ignited simultaneously. Ground personnel and aircrews ran to their machines — also loaded with bombs and fuel — to pull them away from the ensuing inferno.

Surveying the damage Six men were killed instantly and another 15 were seriously injured, one of which subsequently died some days later. The Heinkel, 1H+LN, was totally destroyed and the unit's remaining bombers were heavily damaged; 5./KG 26 was out of action for days as a result of losing the majority of its aircraft. The damage did not end there — a Junkers Ju 52/3m and Focke-Wulf Fw 58 were also seriously damaged.

The unit proceeded with a comprehensive clean-up, which took two full days. An investigation into the incident revealed that another mechanic working in the cockpit of 1H+LN had switched the bomb-selector panel in the cockpit to 'live' not for bomb-loading. The crews were driven to the Heinkel factory at Oranienburg, near Berlin, to take delivery of brand new He 111s, and by September 10 the unit was ready for action again. The incident was, at that point, the most devastating in KG 26's history, and was never forgotten by the Staffel members who witnessed it.
