Re: loss of Ju88 V4+HT Jan 1941
Luft.GQM returns just gives for V4+HT (Birmingham) as place and lost to unknown cause. Bader's combat report shows claimed at 1519hrs. 60-70 miles east of Yarmouth. In the combat report it says e/a jettisoned its bombs, returned fire and after several attacks went into straight into the sea and ''E/A Colour : Black and light blue underneath, very dark English type camoufage on top. Amazing similarity to long-nosed Blenheim untill black crosses were seen on underside of wings''. I could not find another Ju88 lost this date to fit Bader's claim,
