Re: Seeking ID of German AF, possibly Breslau, where this StG77 funeral was being held circa Aug-Oct, 1939
Hi Matti,
Polish original reports mention 25-26 German aircraft downed over Modlin and other defence positions in the area. After post-war verification, only 6 Lw aircraft appeared to be actually destroyed. Others were damaged and repaired later on, but none on 22nd September. The Verlustmeldung sometimes determines the place of operation (target), rather than place where the aircraft received the deadly shot. The report you quote says: "Bruch ? %, Olt Polt, Walter, +". It's not a total loss. The distance from Radom-Sadkow to Modlin is some 130-140 kilometers. On 22.09.1939 the unit had to flew near a few well defended areas, which could damage or destroy the Ju-87 in subject. In conclusion: I haven't better location information for this loss, so do you. But I have no reason to belive it was exactly a Modlin, I rather doubt about it.
