Re: NJG Combat Loss 3/4 Feb 45
well Lanc that is an interesting acct. and one that Rod is trying to ascertain. Andreas mentions or someone that some 15 Ju88G's were in process of being damaged but not a total loss on this February evening, if I am correct in my understanding. the big question when "fire" was witnessed on the Ju 88 was it fuselage or engine and the possibility that the Ju 88G diving away to extinguish it and limped back home as damaged. A big question that is probably not answerable.
I also find it odd that the Ju 88G after a Schräge Musik attack with witness of the German crew that the RAF bomber was on fire did not zoom up and to one side out of harms away had the RAF bomber plunged downward. The standard procedure for Ju 88G crew's but obviously not in this case
