Re: NA114, Halifax, 10. Sqn

I have quoted the entry in the Bomber Command Loss Card with reference to the translated German loss report KE 10089. In extracts is noted: "Place of loss: by Lemgo. Cause of loss: Nightfighter".
If the German Luftwaffe authorities have noted "Nightfighter" I have no reason to doubt the German informations from 1945.

I know other sources: .... shot down by nightfighter and/or flak from Detmold Airfield, crashing near Lemgo. The Halifax exploded and wreckage covered an area Wahmbeck-Wiembeck-Barkhausen ...

Regards
Leo
