Re: 4 more Ju88 A-17 june 1944
Salut Claude,
Olaf Lübke survived the crash and became POW. I'm in contact with him from time to time and about 6 weeks ago i was visiting him. I'm working on the missions of KG 26 and KG 77 in the mediterranean area and specially southern france, as i spent almost all my hollidays in this area. But of course, i collected also information about missions in the "north". He was writing a small report about this mentioned mission, i will copy it for you. Can you read/translate german text? Greetings Lino |

Re: 4 more Ju88 A-17 june 1944
Hi Claude,
Brian seems to be right, the report from Olaf Luebke names also the Flak fire coming from 3 destroyers as reason for the loss of AC. Left engine was hit and burning, later also the tail unit was damaged, so they had to do an emergency landing in the sea at about 23.15h. Please watch your PM Greetings Lino |
