Re: 2./LG 1 loss 12 April 1944
Hmm, according to the book on LG 1, L1+HK was lost on 12.04.44 in the area of Anzio after an encounter with a night fighter. But, it was W.Nr. 140 252. The crew is listed as Uffz Kurt Becker, FF, MIA. Gefr Heinz Lode, BO, MIA. Ogefr Josef Pitzius, BF, KIA. Ogefr. Johann Friedl, BS, MIA. No other info about the actual downing of the a/c.
If, however, you're looking specifically for W.Nr. 300 626, then, as John said, it went down somewhere east of Sicily, location stated as Quadrat 13 Ost/8516, no reason given, on 21.12.43. This was as part of an attack on a convoy 210sm NW of Bengazi. So, fill your boots.
