Re: Ju88 shot down 11 October 1940

ORBs for operational fighter/bomber units have survived better than those for training units, even the operational ones. The RAF was a bureaucracy run on bumf; by the end of the war it was encumbered by mountains of the stuff. One shouldn't be too hard on those who had to decide what to keep from the vast piles. At the end of the war the RAF resembled a house clearance. We are fortunate to have what is left, and I'm constantly amazed at the amount of detail that can been recovered.

Is there anyone out there who might be able to trace the German crew's families?
