Melvin,

For 29 July 1940 - I have the following from "Battle of Britian Then and Now" (Mk 3):-

"4./KG76. Junkers Ju 88A-1. Shot down into the Channel south of Worthing at 2.00 pm by 145 Sqdn Hurricanes. Maj. Donaubauer and Uffz Peters killed. Lt Nier and Uffz Cordes missing.Aircraft lost".

From Mason's earlier "Battle Over Britian" I have a slightly different view:-

"4./KG76. Shot down by Naval AA gunfire of Dungeness, 13.12 hrs. Ju 88A-1. 100 %. Two crew killed.Maj.i.G. Donaubauer and Lt Nier missing".
