Hello,
I look for the loss of two Ju 88 on the night of 6 to 7 Dec. 1942. At 8:05 p.m. to 5 miles (8 kilometers) southwest of Mannheim. The rear gunner, of Halifax, opened fire at 300 yards (275 meters) and fired a burst for five seconds.
The left engine exploded and the left wing caught fire and then separated. The Ju 88 was seen the last time, plunging in flames. The Halifax plunged veering to the right.
The Halifax then plunged veering to the left.
The upper gunner opened fire at 300 yards (275 meters) and fired a burst for five seconds. While the Ju 88 was approaching on the right, his right wing and engine were seen in flames. When the Ju 88 came back again, pulling the Halifax plunged two long bursts and Ju 88 caught fire on the left wing. The Ju 88 was now a mass of flames and fell off out of control. He was seen touching the ground by several members of the crew.
