Tagesbericht 27. Juni 1942
Folgende Sichtungen/Bekämpfungen feindlicher U-Boote wurden am heutigen Tage von den verschiedenen Luftwaffenkommandos gemeldet.
Im Raum der Philippinen konnten Stadt und Hafen von San Jose auf der Insel Panay gesichert werden. Die Truppen marschieren morgen gen Osten ab, wo noch feindliche Truppenkontingente stehen.
Am östlichen Ende der Makassar Straße gelang es einem feindlichen U-Boot, ein Sicherungsschiff eines Tankerkonvois zu torpedieren. Das Patrouillenboot scherte aus dem Konvoi aus und verlor zunehmend an Fahrt. Das Schiff wird wohl nicht zu retten sein.

Bei Hankow griff die Armeeluftwaffe die chinesischen Truppen massiv aus der Luft an. Der Feind zieht sich anscheinend geordnet entlang des Flusses nach Nordwesten in Richtung Ichang zurück. Ein ad hoc angesetzter Bodenangriff auf den Feind endete mehr als unbefriedigend und soll vorerst nicht wiederholt werden.
