Hi Sergio,

From notes I made from the Luftwaffe loss returns some time ago there were 33 Ju 52's missing or crashed (100% losses) and another 9 with damage between 30-70% ( more with lesser damage). From these there were 20 aircrew killed, 28 wounded and 50 missing the crew of w.n. 6534 were rescued by the Seenotdienst as was the pilot of w.n. 5734. One of these Ju 52s is shown as falling to a Nightfighter on the 18th so it was not on this mission, perhaps returning at night,

Regards
