Re: Please Help - Lancaster EE138

"04.09.43 Ltn. Karl Rechberger 12./NJG 3 Lancaster  - 02.32 Film-C. 2031/I XII. Flg.Kps."
This is not a double claim by Rechberger and AA. XII Fliegerkorps was in command of the nightfighters, so the claim was submitted through XII. FlKorps.


Ltn Rechberger was based at Grove airfield Denmark and continued until he was later wounded but landed back at Grove on the 4th of November 1943, the details are from the same site
04-11-1943 Junkers Ju 88 C-6 Nachtjagdstaffel 12./IV./NJG 3 Grove 2D WNr. 0750 500 D5 + AX British A/C 75 SQN STIR 35% Ltn. Karl Rechberger (w) 0-0-1-2 DENMARK Lan/Dam/on airfield Grove.
Rechbergers Ju 88 was hit by returnfire from the bomber, damaging the Ju and wounding Rechberger. He did survive the war.
