Re: Ju 88 shot down by U-243 on 11 June 1944

Well Ed,
I understand the situation as such with WNr 430678 vs (088)0678.

Irrelevant or not I am still curious regarding the date 4.(F)/Ob d L became 1./Versuchsv. Ob d L. The details re the curious Ju 88 have after all been listed by Jim P and unit corrected by you.

I don't have any first hand sources and am constantly trying to come to grips with the details you guys provide and the info already published.

From the sources I have it looks like the 4.(F) staffel did not exist when the Ju 88 was shot down on 20.4.43, and Holm also agree that is was re-designated 1./Versuchsv. Ob d L in Jan 1943

Cheers
Stig
