Loss of Lancaster ME738

Hello all, I am searching for any information regarding the loss of a Lancaster on the night of 27 - 28 April 1944 ME738 (PM-S) of 103 Squadron was shot down by a night-fighter while on an op to Friedrichshafen. Is it possible to obtain the details of who made the claim for this loss?

Hello ,

According to the book " Nachtjad War Diaries " volume two by Theo Boiten and Roderick J Mackenzie this aircraft was shot down by Oblt Martin Becker from 2./NJG6 at 0157 hrs. It was Beckers 31 victory.
