Ju 88 A-4 WNr 1612, lost on 15 or 16 January 1942
According to the Blitz then and now, the Ju 88 A-4 WNr 1612 of 1./KüGr 506 was shot down by AA fire at 1650 hrs onb 16 January 1942 off Tyneside and its four crew killed.
Problem is that no German activity is reported in my sources for 16 January in this area, but is on the 15. And a website gives the date of 15 for this loss, as does the Volksbund for the crew member (Lt zur See Dietar Andresen) that was washed ashore and buried in England. So, can anyone with access with the primary source confirm which date (15 or 16) this bomber was lost ? Thanks in advance |
