[martin75]

Hello,

can someone help me with details (crew, WNr., ...) on two planes of II/KG76 lost during night 11 to 12 april 1944 over the Med. : F1+LM and F1+HP.

Thanks in advance

Claude

Claude,

I guess from your posts that you are working on something about the convoy attacks in the Mediterranean in early 1944. If that is so, why not start a single thread on that subject, so that all your questions are in one place?

You are perfectly true Nick, but I always fear that a question too long and dense does not get any response.

Thanks Ed,

but I thought 550732 was the WNr of Ju-88 A-17 3Z+AT (pilot Uffz. Kurt Langendorf) of 9./K.G.77 which landed in Spain following operation of night 11 to 12 july 1944. Info found on following site (but the source may be incorrect) :

Have Kurt Lanzendorf on 622601 3Z+AT. Unfortunately Websites are not the holy truth, unfortunately they are as good as it happens (or as bad) but errors can be there as well in NVM, it happens; but info is from Luftwaffe NVM, very meticulusly compiled at WASt by our TOCH! member Matti Salonen. -Ed

Like this one:

• El día 20 de mayo de 1943 un Ju-88 A-4, del III/KG40, numeral Wnr. 882441 y 4D+KS, basado en Villacidro, cerca de Cagliari, hizo un aterrizaje forzoso en la playa de San Salvador (Tarragona). Posteriormente se trasladó a Calafell, siendo desmontado un mes después y enviado por ferrocarril a Albacete, donde se utilizó como avión de enseñanza. El avión tuvo en el E.A. el número de serie 29-19 y B.6-19

Oblt. Walter Hortmann - Piloto
Ogfr. Horst Dechner - Observador
Gefr. Herbert Murchallitz - Artillero
Ogfr. Eberhard Seitz - Radio

In losses this is reported A4 2441 4D+KS in GQM losses (Lfd. 87 25.05.43)
because correct number is 0880142441 (Siebel) not 882441 as that was A-5 airplane assembled by Arado (with also more correct number 0882441). -Ed

Thanks you for the clarification Ed.

Thanks Nick,

the same crew was lost on 21 april 1945 :
Uffz.Kurt Langendorf
Uffz Stephan Schmädicke
Obgefr. Hans Holländer
Fw. Werner Jorden

Can someone help me with the crew of F1+LM and F1+HP ? There were probably ADI(k) Reports as there was at least 1 POW for F1+HP.
