Hello Leslie
My name is Don Smith and I am following up, and indeed will soon post on this forum, a similar query. In this case regarding my uncle who lost his life over Peenemunde in 1943.
Please accept that in what I say next I mean absolutely no disrespect, but I wonder if your father's memories are playing tricks on him, perhaps folding two different operations together into one whole?
Similarly the JU-188 nightfighter? I'd not be too sure about that.
All the best in your searches, regards Don
