Uffz. Albert Elte - JG54

Hello!

Does anyone have some information on Uffz. Albert Elte from 8./JG 54?
He crashed in his Bf 109 G-6 #20513 near Hagenah in the Bremervörde area.

Does any Air-battles took place on this day in northern Germany?
Any information relating to Elte is interesting.

Thanks,
Niklas

Hello Niklas,

on 26 November 1943 the 8th USAAF attacked Bremen. The III./JG 54 took off in Schwerin without enemy contact, time of action 1130 - 1155 hrs (logbooks of Fw Friedrich Ungar and Fw Hans Herrmann).
For no obvious reason Uffz Albert Elte did not return.
