R4+FR would make it 7./NJG 2. Ac on 30 May 42 was R4+DH 0122 and the pilot Uffz Hans Melin. R4+DH on 28 Jun 42 was 360002. 14-15 Jul 42 was 360247

Yes Chris, that's why i wonder about the date of the crash and the werk nr.

If that aircraft crashed before 30.05 and belonged to 7./NJG2 i wonder how it ended up in Cantania since that staffel was based at Gilze-Rijen at that time.

no no.
0122 Ju 88 C-2 R4+DH 30.05.42 (not C-6 so some confusion here)

360002 Ju 88 C-6 earlier R4+DH (15.06.42) but appears recoded R4+CK
(and replacing an A-4 !) when force landed (100%) in the desert near Marsa Matruk 00:10 hrs 29.06.1942

360247 Ju 88 C-6 R4+EH (photo) 15.07.42 was damaged and left behind.
