Re: Information concerning loss of Uffz. Peter Demarteau- Atlantic - 26.05.1944
Rick, he was a Gunner in Ju290A-4 0164 (6-engined grosfernaufklarer' = large 6 engined recon. aircraft although 0164 was a four engined 290 not a 6 engine 390 ) 9V+GK of 1/FAG 5 based at Mont de Marsen, his aircraft fell to fighters in the evening. Of the crew of 10 five were picked up by a naval unit from their one man dinghies, main dinghy having been damaged in attack, I think this has been on TOCH before,
