[streak98]

Hello,

seeking Informations regarding the Loss of Ltn. Udo Schwarz 3./NJG3 30.May 1943 near Schneeren / Steinhuder Meer Area (Lower Saxony). Ltn. Schwarz was a former Member of NJG 101 and detached to NJG3 at the time of the Loss.
M. Balss in his Book (Nachtjagdverluste) listed the Loss as accident without further Infos.

Thanks for helping in advance,

Hi streak98,

in the GQM loss return are no details about the reason of the loss. The flight is signed with "H" (= Heimatverlust), it was a non-operational flight, but no more info.
