Re: JG26 7.Feb. 1945

According to my loss lists W.Nr. 210105 was a 7./JG 26 aircraft. It was destroyed on 7 February 1945 in a crash (cause unknown) after take-off; the pilot, Obgefr. Günther Böke, was killed in the accident.

The rest of the information is, however, conflicting: the aircraft is variously recorded as "Brown 1" and "Brown 7", while the site of the crash is also given as Düsseldorf airfield, i.e. Böke may have crashed during the transfer of W.Nr. 210105 to Nordhorn airfield. A further element of confusion is the fact that on the same day another II./JG 26 D-9, W.Nr. 210103, was reported lost at Düsseldorf, but all further information is lacking.

Remi - could you please indicate the source of your information?

Best regards,

Marc
