Re: Losses of Ju 88 15th January 1943

Interesting colour photo. I had seen it elsewhere. I think this might be 140396 B3+JM - Read letters J.M on nose (a bit stylish to look like Arabic?) Besides two White stripes (colours of 4. Staffeln / II Gruppen), rather fresh looking camouflage, new replacement aircraft. By this time (15.01.1943) this plane was only apx. 3,5 months old...

F Ofw. Heinz Kirsch loss is in GQM losses, just not this date! Likely he was only lightly injured on 15.01.43 (and if plane was under 10% damaged it was not recorded in GQM losses) - He was lost the following month in 3Z+FL
