Fw. Otto Unertl 9./JG77 KIA 25-April-1941
 

I am currently researching Feldwebel Otto Unertl 9./JG77 KIA 25-April-1941, shot down by Flak near Nauplion, Greece.

I know that Unertl was flying a Bf-109 E-7 however, I would appreciate it if anyone could identify the Werk Nr. or even the fuselage code of the machine. Furthermore, I would like to find out if possible the details of the JG77 missions for that date.

As always, any help is very well received.

Regards Richard.
