Re: Fw.Gunther Unger 9/KG76 15.9.40.

Steve,

You are indeed correct. Fw Gunther UNGER ditched on 18 August 1940 and not on 15 September 1940 as (apparently) stated in Nigel PARKER's Luftwaffe Crash Archive. The unfortunate decision to simply duplicate verbatim extracts from the original wartime A.I.1.(k) Reports now held at Kew unfortunately results in the series being peppered with such factual errors and thus being a less than reliable source of accurate information. Excellent photo coverage however, thanks mainly to Andy SAUNDERS making the late Ken WATKINS collection available for publication.
