Loss Of ED995 Hameln 8/9th Oct 1943
Hello Andy
I am glad that I could be of some help. Concerning the two possible claimants, I can only add that Oberleutnant Beck served with 6. and the Gruppenstab of II./NJG 101 and claimed six victories during the war. Hauptmann Zechlin served with 4./NJG 5 and I./NJG 2, including as Gruppenkommandeur from 20 February 1944 to 12 May 1944 and claimed eight victories. Both survived the war although Zechlin was wounded on 19/20 February 1944, when he was shot down by Flak at Ostrand des Ortes Mötzlich near Halle/Saale (Balss). I hope this helps.
Horrido!
Leo
