Re: JU 88 4D+DR 15 August 1940

Well, sorry gentlemen, even I make mistakes. It transpires that likely all these "Ju 88 C" imentioned in Post #7 abowe had four man crews (per amendments in RL 2 III/1174 P.48 <Report 19.08.40, bottom, Lfd. 17 a,b,c,d,e.>) "Scribbling" and subsequent overstiking of numbers in each crew in first report leading to this "Gross error" and thus the entries concerning most if not all of KG 30 on 15.08.40 were wrongly read by me from the Microfice. So these were then not "Zerstörers". Sorry. The "C" likely standing for "Rústgrad C" (long-range fuel-tanks in both fuselage bays, bombs then only carried on external racks). Now I go for a freshing evening walk!
