Yes, see next page on another posting of marketC47 (Hans). Hans, please keep your posts together in one string if it concerns the same subject. Ruy, maybe you can add these postings to the previous one? I think Rod pretty well assessed the last status of these two losses 3C+AR (7./NJG 4) and 3C+CS (8./NJG 4).

John.

Lists of crewmen killed or captured are held in file AIR2/6385 held at the Public Records Office at Kew London these just show date, place and crew names.. Reports on interrogation of captured aircrew ( K Reports) are held in file AIR40/2421 (Feb.to Mar.1945 or file AIR40/2422 for reports April to June 1945). If any member is going there perhaps they could look these up for you for the Milius crew.

Thanks for the replies.
Sorry for putting this and the other thread appart. Did not want to throw any confusion here. Guess I did...sorry.

I checked the Volksbund site, but did not find the needed info. Unless the Mittendorf information is of by date of death.

The info on the files in london sound good. will check if others are going that direction as well.

The JU 88 I am asking about crashed among gliders near Wesel. just got word that there are colour photos of another plane that crashed among gliders. Wonder if someone has scans of those colour photos. Would like to check out if there is some mix up in planes.
From glider pilot reports i know that the JU 88 crashed on the night of 24-25 March. Two or three crew members died.
The glider pilotsleft the area on the evening of the 25th.
