Re: Ju88 crew member

Hello Philou;

This was likely a Meteorologist Observer (taking Weather notes and measuring temperature, humidity, Barometric pressure etc); but also observing enemy activity if seen ... his plane was this below. Code D7+FK is of ´Wetter Staffel 2 (but Wekústa is also correct).

W.Nr. 0881141 Ju 88 D-1 Wekústa 2 (Luftflotte 3)
OPS (F) struck ground, crashed and burned (100%) at Goulpher <at> Belle-Ile 04.10.1942 (F Fw. Josef Gruner killed, B Reg.Rat. Friedrich Hanst, BF Uffz. Hubert Zander and BS Uffz. Erich Liersch mis/rep killed in LWFLV losses u/16.10.42)

cheers
