Ju 88 shot down
 
Hello,

I have got this question. During the night on 30. September 1943 flew several Ju 88 from 8./KG 6 and Me 410 from V./KG 2 a raid to London.
The british nightfighters shot down two Ju 88 and two Me 410.
I am especially interesting about lost of Ju 88 S-1 Wnr. 140595 code 3E + KS shot down on the return over see.
Which of british nightfighters scored in this night?

Many thanks

Miro

I think the date should be 30.10.1943 believed fell to F/O Thomas with W/O Hamilton in a Mosquito of 85 Sqd 20 miles South of Shoreham Ff Uffz. Georg Stein m, B. Gef Fritz Hinner missing, Bf Ogef Erich Frank missing. The other S-1 crew of Oblt Salck believed shot down by F/O Robb with F/O Bray of 85 Sqd. 22 miles S/E of Rye, both victims claimed as Ju188's.

Please can you tell me the crew names and crew positions for the second Ju88S-1 (140585) of 8/KG6? Thank you.
