Re: 19.12.41 three Ju 52 lost over Creete

@Stig

If you read carefully the document, a sabotage occured with the fuel. We know now about men of the greek resistance doing sabotage in the german repair establishment in Athens.

according to war diary of the 5. Gebirgsdivision
the Kampfgruppe z.b.V. 400 with Stab and all 4 Staffel visited Crete 12.41, 01.42, 04.42. ,
the 3. Staffel of Kampfgruppe z.b.V. 500 is reported to have been on Crete in January 1942

@ RT

the source of my documents are the war diaries, in that case the diary of Seekommandant Kreta 03.06.41-16.08.41. Crashes of planes near the island are reported but without unit or crew names.

Thank you Remi for your infos about planes and casualties.
The Staffel of KG z.b.V. 400 had the letters H (1), K (2), L (3) and M (4)

You report 1. Staffel with DE+TY the Y is 14th Staffel ???
can you please define the Staffel all these names belong?
does b means Beobachter? Sta.Ka. Staffel-kapitän, f Flieger?
Was 7.th (R) Staffel Kampfgruppe 500 in Dez. 1941 in Crete?

Thanks in advance

Byron
