I./KG 77 Ju 88 losses Tunesia 15 January 1943
On 15 January 1943 a flight of Ju88 A-4 bombers from I/KG77 that had taken off from Catania was bounced by P-40s from the 33rd FG near Telopte (Thélepte), Tunesia, and suffered heavy losses. Among these were:
1/KG77 losses: WNr 140462 (Oblt. Betke) WNr 140052 3Z+AH (Fw Erhardt) WNr 142333 3Z+MH (Uffz. Thiedke) WNr 140419 3Z+HN (Ofw. Winkler) WNr 141097 3Z+CH (Uffz. Wagner) 2/KG77 losses: WNr 141035 3Z+KK (Uffz. Jäckel) 3/KG77 losses: WNr 140453 3Z+JL (Uffz. Witter) Only Ofw. Kirsch of 3/KG77 returned in 3Z+FL, which suffered damage and wounded crew. I've been trying to find photos of these aircraft, but without any luck. Does anyone have photos of any of these aircraft, please?
