Re: NJG loss off Netherlands on 21 January 1942 (and a possible other loss)
Hi guys,

I have carefully checked if I can add anything to this thread, but Hans and Matti have summed up the facts well. Balss corrected the a/c code in his book Deutsche Nachtjagd Materialverluste in Ausbildung und Einsatz page 50, the right code reading: R4+JP. He also added the Planquadrant 43194 which is 15 km west of Petten.

Another thought: Hans suggested that Zipperlein may have been lost in a combat with 311 Squadron Wellington DV515, but could this perhaps also have been 408 Sqn Hampden X3051 (which was also posted as 'lost without a trace')?

Cheers, Theo
