Re: BRUNNER, Josef, Feldwebel 2/NJG-1

I looked in W.R. Chorley's book "Royal Air Force Bomber Command Losses of the Second World War 1943" and the raid on Mannheim for the night of the 23-24 Sep 1943 might be a "pin in the map type search". A lot of bombers going down at different locations and depending on the location used to ID the crash site it might be different then what is listed in the claim. Then there's the possibility that the second Lancaster survived damage and made it further before going down or even home.
