[David P. Williams]

Ken,

Becker took off from Illesheim at 00.25 hours flying an Me 110 coded MK.

He landed back at Illesheim at 03.06 hours having claimed 3 Lancasters (one was turned down) and being airborne for a total of 161 minutes. These, according to my records, were his 28th and 29th victories recorded at 01.30 and 01.36 hours.

These victories were recorded as being shot down in the area of Echterdingen/Lierbach Planquadrate QR3 and Bosingen Planquadrate BS7.

I will check these locations against where your Uncle's aircraft came down to see if they are close.

Could you send me a PM as I am currently writing a biography about Martin Becker.

All the best,

David
