Re: Crew of the KG51 Ju 88 (9K+AB) shot down on June 5, 1940
Recesswind:
In the EOE Data Base we have the following for this loss:
"June 5, 1940: Stab I./KG51 Junkers Ju88A-1. Shot down by Capt Opulski and Sgt Krawczynski of DAT Romorantin during attack on Romorantin-Prunières and belly-landed near l’Angélus at Presly where burned out 2.00 p.m. Also attacked by S/Lt de Seynes, Sgt Delhoume, S/Lt Riss, and Adj Couffon of GC II/6 and S/Lt Wingert and Mr Desmazières of DAT Chteauroux. FF Fw Kurt Diekert, BM Fw Herbert Wagner, BF Uffz Walter Krichbaum, and HB Gefr Werner Schindler all captured unhurt – later released. Aircraft 100% write-off. Pierre-François Desmazières was a civilian flying operations with the Chteauroux defence flight."
As you can see, there is no a/c code listed. Where did you get the information about this one being 9K+AB? Do you have photos of the crash or what is your source?
