Information concerning loss of Feldwebel Karl Hamacher - nachtjager - killed 04.09.1943
 
Hi,

Can anyone provide information on the loss of Feldwebel Karl Hamacher who was killed on a mission on the 4th September 1943?

He was part of a nachtjager crew and was an experienced flier who had already been awarded the Silver Flight Badge and had flown over Poland, France and England.

Thanks

Rick

The crew wasn't killed on a mission, rather on a non-operational sortie (Heimatflug).
