Hi Mike
It might interest you that Lancaster ED470 was shot down by Leutnant Otto Teschner from 11./NJG 1. Teschner was born in East Preussia in Bartenstein. He was killed during the night of 24. and 25. December 1944 during an aerial combat. His Bf 110G-4 (Werk Nr 160582 and coded G9+AY) crashed 3 km east of Dortmund. His other two crewmembers survived, but were wounded (Tinsp Rudolf Schmidt and Uffz Kurt Köhler).
