Re: Ju88 at Ofotfjord 16.5.1940

Further to Ed's reply this is what I currently have on the two losses:

6./KG30 Junkers Ju88A-1. Shot down over Ofotfjord by Skuas of No.803 (FAA) Squadron and believed ditched off Forra. BS Fw Ernst Kübler killed, BF Fw Willi Schell believed captured wounded – later released, FF Hptmn Günther Noll (Staffelkapitän), and BO Fw Hubert Trimborn both captured unhurt. Aircraft 4D+AP 100% write-off.

6./KG30 Junkers Ju88A-1. Shot down by Skuas of No.803 (FAA) Squadron and belly-landed south of Ofotfjord. FF Lt Heinrich Diermeyer captured unhurt, BO Gefr Georg Schutz, BF Uffz Anton Schlösser, and BS Obergefr Heinrich Koch also captured unhurt – later released. Aircraft 100% write-off.

I have been unable to tell which of them was claimed by Sub/Lt Easton.
