Hello Gentleman,
maybe a long shot but...
In his book "41 Sekunden bis zum Einschlag" the former III./KG 100 Pilot Klaus Deumling mentions that his Staffelkapitän (7. Staffel) Lt. Michelis was missing since a mission to Salerno and Nettuno on the
16th of September.
The 7./KG 100 flew Do 217 K with Fritz X.
So far so good,
but ...
In Ulf Balkes Geschwaderkronik, already mentioned here, we find this loss on the
19th of September.
The same date is mentioned here:
http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showth...9.KG100+FOGGIA
But nowhere are details to be found regarding subtype or Werknummer of the flown Do 217.
So what is right and what wrong ??
Herr Deumling wrote his book in 2008 so he hopefully is still alive and well.
You maybe can contact him via the Aviationmuseum "Luftfahrt Museum Hannover-Laatzen".
He frequently worked there voluntarylie.
I think he still has his logbooks and other dokuments.
By the way; what makes You shure it was the 16.09.43 "Your" plane came down ??
Hopefully this gets You a little bit further.
Schoene Gruesze
