Re: Ju 88 A-17 ??+DP
Thanks a lot Ed and Nick for the information.
Some more background about my search:
After i was doing some research underwater about 3 Ju88 wrecks
near Marseille, i became more and more interested in the history of
the Anti-ship and recon missions in the mediterranean. (So KG 26, KG 77,
KG 76 and KG 100.) As you know, material (documents and pictures) about Luftwaffe units in southern france in 1944 is very hard to get. So i was very happy finding this former Torpedo mechanic with his memories and pictures. Specially because his home isn't so far away from where i live :-)
What i'm trying to do now is collecting his information and pictures. Specially because, as far as i know, there is almost nothing known about the service of the LT BK units. (Luft-Torpedo Betriebs-Kompanie). They have been attached directly to the RLM. (According to the mechanic), and not necessarly always to a special Geschwader or Gruppe.
So finding a loss/damage for this Ju 88 could provide more information about KG units supported by the 8. LT BK.
He told me he was primary attached to II. KG 26, but sametime he told me, they have been sometimes delivering LT by to other units/places by using a transport Ju 52.
