Re: Ghostbombers updates
 

"705686" was a typo of mine, which I thought I'd corrected long ago. Thanks for reminding me (and for the St.Kz.).

Re: Ghostbombers updates
 

Regarding the Kdo. Koch article: for the 2-Sep-42 loss of Ltn. Rische & crew. The WNr. is reported as WNr. 7583, 'TM+KP' by Balke with the same WNr. in Gen.Qu.6.Abt. losses. Which WNr. is correct? No opinion here as to which - just pointing out the WNr. discrepancy. I have no other conflict for WNr. 7583, while WNr. 7586 is missing in my db. (Note that I have He 111H-6 WNr. 7589 from KG 55 reported specifically as 'TM+KV' in another document I have [may have been inferred by author-I don't know]. I did see that Nick mentions WNr. 7583 from other intercepts later in his article.)

He 111H-6, 7583, Rische, Ltn. Johannes, , II., , KG 100 (S.Kdo. Koch), , TM+KP, TM+KP, , 02-Sep-42, Crew killed in crash at sea., , Ob.Bhf.Süd/Mittelmeer, Gen.Qu.6.Abt. (mfm #7)-Vol.11; Balke, KG 100, p.376, 444, , bei Fl.Pl. Kalamaki/Athen, 100%, F, B Ltn. Helmut Otto, Bf Uffz. Helmut Brohammer, Bs Ogefr. Roland Joscht & 2.Bf Fu. Bruno Adrian, ,

In which particular article is Ju 88C-6 WNr. 705686/750686 mentioned? Definitely would have agreed with Roland's assessment, and with Nick's confirmation, but I can't seem to find it!! And just saying, Nick, your articles from these Ultra intercepts are an amazing contribution/resource to all of us. Thank you!!

14 May 1940: The He111 with the belly landing in Vaernes - I'd guess - was the 1H+BM. They had an "Notlandung" after an "Feindflug" there at 08.45 am (source: flight log Helmut Jaeger).

Sorry Nick. Has been corrected.
