Losses from the loss list of April 30th 1944

[Andreas Brekken]

Hi, guys!

Cleaning up some entries in my loss records database.

See that I have had some problems with the lfd.Nr. 10, 11 and 12 from the report of April 30th 1944 due to a torn page.

For lfd.Nr. 10: Can anyone confirm that Gefr. Parzbier, Obgfr. Herwedz? and Obgfr. Weiland of Ln.Sch. 2 was killed when Ju 86 E-14 WNr 173 crashed on April 26th 1944? I have deduced this from the handwritten summary for the report which is shown on the last page.

For lfd.Nr. 11: Can anyone confirm the crew position of Uffz. Rudi Jahn as being F (Pilot)? As the crew had 1 non-officer killed and 3 wounded (of which one was an officer) it is hard to decide the distribution.

I believe that Hans Fischer might have had the rank of Flg.Stabsing. (or maybe Flg.Haupting.?) and thus is the wounded with officer rank flying as B (Beobachter).

I also need the rank and crew position of Albert Schweppe and Georg Ettel.

For lfd.Nr.12 I guess I would have to accept that the full WNr of the aircraft will never be known - Ju 88 A-5 WNr. 40?????

Regards, and thanks for any assistance in advance,
Andreas B
