1st April 1943, Stuka crashed in France
 

Hello,

A Stuka crashed in West of France (precise place : 40 km East of Nantes), on 1st April 1943. It hit the top of trees during a training mission. Both crewmen (Uffz. Hans Joachim GERISCH and Gefr. Erhard TOGNI) were killed in the crash.

Questions :

- to which unit did this Stuka belong ?
- which code and werknummer ?
- where was it based ?

Thank you very much

Pierre BABIN

Hi
Do you know the crashplace ? Loire Atlantique ? Vendée? Morbihan?

Between 10/1942 and 16/05/1943, Ergänzungsstaffel Gruppe St.G.1 was based at Nantes Chateau-Bougon airfield. This staffel was equiped with Junkers87.

iF OTHER FRIEND HAS OTHER INFORMATIONS ABOUT THIS UNIT during the stay at Nantes, I am very interested in.
