Ltn Hermann Leube

Hi. I am looking for any information on the above named night fighter pilot. On 3/8/1943 he was the pilot belonging to 2/NJG 3 that claimed that he shot down a Stirling or 4 engined bomber. All Stirlings were accounted for on that night of the raid on Hambug. What is missing is the Lancaster W5000 QRB that vanished without trace. It has been suggested that Leube could have made a mistake in ID and that it wasn't a Stirling but the missing Lanc. This happened about 20km NW of Juist. I would like to know the type of a/c he was flying, his base and any other detail. My uncle was the tail gunner on the missing Lanc. Thanks Tony
