Re: Ju 88, Wn.7117 of 4./KG 77 4th may 1941
Hi Bas,
Uffz Ernst Grach was a crew member of Ju 88A-5 Wnr 8096. The Ju 88 was damaged either by ack-ack or by nightfighters and Uffz Grach bailed out over the Channel near the Isle of Whight. The Ju 88 managed to return and made a crash landing near Rheims and was damaged for 30%.
The body of Uffz Grach washed ashore on 6th August 1941 near beach pole 10 on the Isle of Texel and was buried the next day at Den Burg cemetery.
I would be interested to learm too the names of the other crew members and perhaps somebody has also a individual code of this Junkers on file?
Best regards,
Hans Nauta
