Re: German 'seaplane' lost 21/5/41 Crete??
The 6th Seenotstaffel (not Gruppe) operated from Sicily in the war theater of Malta and Afrika.
For the Aegean sea was the 7th responsible. A very few number of planes of this unit (the 6th) apeared in Greece in different times.
Seenotstaffel 7 d.Lw. (14.04.41-23.10.44)aufgestellt im 03.41 in Kiel
am 14.04.41 Ankunft in Saloniki, am 07.05.41 in Phaliron mit zwei FW 58, vier He 59 und eine Ju 52 / See.
05.41Seenotstützpunkte in Molai, in Milos (Kdt. Ltn. Karl-Heinz Daehn) und ab 17.06.41 an der Sudabucht.
Together with some planes of Wekusta 76, the 7th rescued over 200 men during the battle of Crete.
