This a/c was brought down by a combination of Flak & a night fighter, I have the following NF claim that can probably be tied to this loss:

Uffz. Ernst Reitmeyer: 2 3./NJG5 Stirling 24 km. S. Hannover: 1.000 m. 23.25 prob. 218 Sqn Stirling EE937

Do you happen to have a photo of the a/c & its crew?

Cheers, Theo
