Re: Ju 188s of 4.(F)/11 - any image?

Hi Larry, thanks for your answer.

the Flugbuch I have states the following last flights:

14 April 1945: 6M+NM relocation from Welzow (from which some missions had been flown at least from 7 April) to Rerik. Pilot Uffz. Buschkiel, standard crew.

30 April 1945: 6M+QM transfer flight from Rerik to Vaerloese. Pilot Fw. Buschkiel, 2 NCO's, 1 technician, 4 Girls. Note: "Landing in Denmark. Transfer of aircraft to FAG 2" ("Landung in Dänemark. Abgabe der Flugzeuge an FAG 2")

I cannot send or post a scan of this Flugbuch entry as I promised the owner not to do that. Unfortunately "Vaerloese" is just a guess, as the officer confirming the Flugbuch wrote his own confirmation over this entry. However, I cross-checked what I could decipher with all known Luftwaffe bases in Denmark. There is a possibility that Buschkiel in fact wrote "Kastrup", but I think Vaerloese it is.

While 4.(F)/11 doesn't appear on the 3 May listing you mentioned, I guess it disbanded at Rerik (or in fact anywhere else in northern Germany) around 28-30 April 1945.

Hope this helps,
Christian

P.S. Would still be happy with just one pic of a 4.(F)/11 aircraft!
