Ju 88 loss on the 01.11.1941???
 

Hi All,

We have been sent this information from a former seaman who went to the crash site next day. This is exactly what he sent:

Night of Nov. 1st. 1941 , Ju 88-A5, Wk No. 2259, 5K+EV from 4 / KG 3 based at Chievres crashed and expoded , killing all the crew , on a farm at Poulton, near Chester, England.
Crew : Pilot Fw. Willy Kraft
Obs. Gfr. Heinrich Joseph
Radio Ufz. Johan Metzler
Gnr. Ufz. Josef Lehner

I can not find this loss in my records for that date, anybody have any ideas?

Wishing ALL a very Merry Christmas,

Melvin

Wow, ... records show his date off two months or so ...
I do not have this period of K / CREA reports, so can not check there,
but NVM apparently has this date too.

Ju 88 A-5 0882259 5K+EV IV/KG 3 (Loftflotte 3)
was missing 28.12.41, unknown location
(LWFLV losses ~ GQM as some call it)

Ju 88 A-5 882259 5K+EV 11./KG 3 (Loftflotte 3)
crashed at sea "04 Ost 7484" same date
(Salonen NVM)

Merry Christmas
