Re: loss of Ju88 V4+HT Jan 1941

Right-have sorted it out. John Foreman in his 1941 book is wrong when he says that this ac was shot down by 91 Sqn at 1125 hrs. III/KG 1 carried out 3 attacks by daylight that day. First took off at 1057 hrs to attack Birmingham, 2nd at 1106 hrs to attack Leamington. Both got back. 2nd ac was probably the one that was attacked by 91 Sqn as he reported flying back over the Thames. At 1456, Lademann took off to attack an aluminum factory at Stechford. Nothing was heard from him after 1556 hrs when he stated was off Great Yarmouth. Ergo Bader shot down Lademann

Well done. What are your sources if not Foreman?
