Re: Do 217 Combat Units of WW2
 

Luftwaffe records do not specify take off airfield or unit neither does Ulf Balke. By a process of elimination and a Flugbuch entry, II./KG 40 went for the east coast targets losing one aircraft. Second times accord with the 2./KG 2 loss off the Isle of Wight. Third wave (TO 0821-0823 hrs) no losses and no FB entries to match

Thank you! Another one: do you possibly know in what place Obergefreiter Wolfgang Künzer of 9./KG 2 died from his wounds on the night of 9/10 January 1943 (at 0130 hrs)?
It's not on the WASt death card in Fold3.com...

You should really be asking this on the Luftwaffe Forum not Book Forum or contact me direct as these posts are about my book. However:


Do 217 E-4, 4399, U5+CT. Damaged by friendly fire from a ship returning from an attack on the Humber Estuary and force-landed north of Groeningen. Ogefr Karl Müller (F) and Ogefr Kurt Bein (BF) unwounded. Uffz Adolf Ehm (B) wounded, Ogefr Wolfgang Künzer (BM) mortally wounded
