Re: JU-88 3C + DC lost over England

Dear oh Dear, Ivo - when will you learn that I am the living oracle of WW 2 crashes in Norfolk and Suffolk ?

Two Ju 88s came down in the Bury St Edmunds area of Suffolk, both at the village of Gt Barton. Neither was a night-fighter; 5J+ER of 7/KG.4 crashed in flames on 30 July 1940 killing all the crew, and 3E+LH of 1/KG.6 belly-landed with the crew being taken PoW on 14 May 1943.

Only two Ju 88 night-fighters came down in Suffolk in WW2. 4R+UR of 7/NJG.2 which famously landed at RAF Woodbridge ELG on 13 July 1944, and 3C+KN of 5/NJG.4 which crashed near Metfield during operation "Gisela" on 4 March 1945.

I'd be interested to know what the source of your info is ?
