lV/NJG5 Rennes France March/April 1943.
'Princes of Darkness' by Claire Rose Knott states that lV/NJG5 was based at Rennes in France in March/April 1943 to help protect the U-Boat bases.
A photo of a Ju88 captioned as belonging to a detachment of lV/5 is in Aders 'History of the German Night Fighter Force'. The fuselage code appears to be a large C9+V?. Are any other photos of this unit's a/c known to exist? Is it known if Prince zu Sayn Wittgenstein was stationed at Rennes at this time? It is not clear from Knott's book. Thanks for any replies.
