Re: Lost JU 88 24 March 1945
Does this one fit the bill the Discs for the Ff and Bf indicated 7/NJG4 while a FPN and A/C code indicated 8/NJG4, no wn reported to confirm whether or not this one was 712283. Could be the same operation on two different nights with both 3C+AR and 3C+AR lost near Wesel ?
'K' report 264/1945 gives the following Ju88 G-6 3C+CS 8/NJG4 crashed a few miles SW of Wesel at 2340hrs on 25th. March. Took Off Lippspringe 2300hrs to shoot up pontoon bridge and transport columns near Dinslaken and Rees. While crossing the Rhine north of Wesel on a westerly course port engine hit by AA and burst into flames. Crew baled out and the pilot tried to reach German Lines in civilian clothes - FF Fw Bruno Neuhauser, Bf Fw Erich Ries, Bm Fw Alfred Hudasch, Bs Uffz Rudolph Roth all POW with Ries shown as injured.
