Crew:
Lt. Laufs, Uffz. Gleißner, Fw.Rinklake A/C: Ju88C-2 (R4 + LH) 0779 The whole crew was killed in a crash after a sortie against Malta. Crash site: Mount Etna 8(km south west of Adrano / Santuzza. The crew is buried on the military cemetery Motta-St.-Antasia burial vault 4. from the book: Heinz Rökker Chronik I.Gruppe Nachtjagdgeschwader 2 I/NJG 2 Juli 1940 bis Kriegsende 1945 Fernnachtjagd 1940 - 1942 Rökker mentions the loss on the 26th, but I think the mission started in the night 26th/27th so the crash happened on the 27th hope this helps Werner
