lw. losses - Catania
 

Hello,


On 13.07.1943 approx. 8 Go 242's landed on the airfield of Catania (Sicily).

Anyone a clue wich numbers and markings these had? All where lost on that day (they where bombed out after landing)

As written down at least the following crewmembers where wounded:

* Olt. Hensel
* Uffz. Rolf

One BM was KIA on that day, Gefr. Schramm (he was the BM of Uffz. Rolf)

Anyone who can give additional information?

Thaks in advance,
