KG26 august 1944

Hello,

On its site, Nick Beale (I cannot apparently contact it by e-mail) speaks about the losses of 19 August 1944 :
" Apart from the Do 217, known Luftwaffe bomber casualties for the day were 5 men of I./KG 26 killed while from II./KG 26 there were 9 dead, 2 wounded, 1 wounded and taken prisoner. This would be equivalent to four crews (plus one passenger) although both Gruppen were equipped the Ju 88 so it seems likely that VOF-1's aircraft recognition was at fault on this occasion."

Does one know which plane were lost according to the German sources? Ju88 or He111 ?
"One passenger" : is it possible that it is a woman?
"known Luftwaffe bomber casualties" : which are these known causes?

Thanks in advance.
