[Seaplanes]

Two Do 24 Aircraft were reported lost this day, 1. November 1943.
6. Seenotstaffel lost Do 24T-3 W.Nr. 2104 KK+LQ when shot up by strafing enemy aircraft while moored in Spalato (Split) harbour. No casualties reported.

7. Seenotstaffel lost Do 24T-2 W.Nr. 991 GM+IJ. Shot Down by enemy aircraft during a rescue flight from Spalato (Split) harbour to Venice with 16 wounded personnel on board. The area was reported as Pl.Qu. 6451/14 Ost. All on board were killed:
Uffz. Paul Lösing (F), Hptm. Herbert Basse (B), Fw. Johann Sabatier (Bf), Uffz. Paul Baars (Bm), Uffz. Paul Feist (Bm), + 16 wounded personnel and one nurse,
(Herbert Basse was promoted to Hauptmann on 1. April 1943. None of the crewmembers mentioned above, is mentioned in the list of personnel of 7. Seenotstaffel in Horst Thürlings book about this unit. They probably all belonged to 6. Seenotstaffel. The aircraft was reported as belonging to 7. Seenotstaffel.

I would assume that these two accodents are linked in some way. Can someone give further details.
