NVM of Wekusta 5 confirms these four crew members. NVM of Wekusta 3 has obviously not survived.

Thanks to all. I was hoping that the book Wekusta will allow to reply my question.

I just check the Summary of Lutwaffe losses and there are two losses registered by Wekusta 5 this day: one aircraft missing due to enemy action, reported on 13 June, and one destroyed without enemy action on operational flight, reported on 14 June.

So it seems that two Ju 88 may have been lost these days, one to engine failure with no survivor, and the other shot down by U-243 with one survivor rescued.
