Re: Informations about DO217 with nr. 1577 or 1573??

Aircraft was marked ZY+MA and was from 9./KG 100. It was shot down during an afternoon attack on the cruiser USS Philadelphia, one of two Do 217 lost that day. (The cruiser was not hit or damaged.) The aircraft commander appears was Obltn. Erwin Burghoff with the other crewmembers as indicated in Brian Bines's posting of 19 June.
