This does look indeed like the He 111 Z /Go 242 group we discussed some time ago (only in a far more derelict / salvaged state). Seems we found our location thanks to Marcel
Hi Christian,

This is indeed one of the postwar pictures taken by the former 1./KG66 1. Wart mentioned in my post above.

Setting and atmosphere is so typical for Dedelstorf..

Regards,

Marcel

PS Thanks for pointing out the article and subsequently Reiner Silberstein's book, I was unaware of them! Will try to get them.
