Re: Internet photo of German aircraft

Michael,
Yes, info seems does not fit. Problem here are "two dead" crew. I am not expert in the aircrew, some of my reply yesterday has been noted as coming from Ultra 28.03.45, AIR 40/2697 P.79 (T.502/96) but this I have not found again on my storage disk (last night and again today) - hard to memorize all, but I do not rule out either I may have put up the wrong crew for 712283 or NVM have put wrong W.Nr. on report - but here is what I have found today. Interestingly there was another (third plane) lost, coded +AR (i.e. G-6 D5+AR) and also after attack in Wesel Bridgehead area. I need look better at this, as I do not have the photos you refer to.

Ju 88 G-1 712283 3C+AR (24.03.45, ) = 4 POW - NVM (& Ultra?)
Ju 88 "G-1" 620982 3C+CS (25.3.45, 23.40 hrs) = 1 KIA, 3 POW - NVM but ADI(K)264/45 has 1 injured, other uninjured
Ju 88 "G-6" xxxxxx D5+AR (26.03.45, 01.00 hrs) = 3 MIA, 1 POW - ADI(K) 266/45

I too wonder what is correct regarding the dead crew on 3C+AR but indeed the Waco Glider is visible on the internet photo.

regards
ed
