Ju 88 loss, 9./NJG 4, 30 November 1944

During the night of 30 November-1 December 1944 the four crew of the Ju 88 G-1 WNr 714754 3C+HT of 9./NJG 4 had to bail out from their aircraft due to engine problems during an operational sortie. Two were wounded but all survived.

Crew (all survived):
Ofhr Franz Kriesten
Gefr Helmut Buczko WIFA
Gefr Günther Podzuweit
Gefr Georg Pawliczek WIFA

Michael Balss book on NJG losses say the aircraft crashed at Wahlfeld an der Leine, but I could not find this place. The only place calle Whalfeld I found is away from the Leine River. Another place had been proposed: Am Wahrberg in 31061 Alfeld, close to the Leine River.

Can someone confirm the latter ?

Thanks in advance
