Re: Need pilots full names
Do 17P, 3535, Ritter, Oblt. Theodor (B)/Draschow, Uffz. Richard Wartenberg von, , 3.(F), 22, , K7+BL, , , 08-Mar-42, Crew MIA, cause unknown., , Lfl.1/Eins.Osten, Gen.Qu.6.Abt. (mfm #5)-Vol.8, , (Bologoje), 100%, F, Bf Uffz. Günther Groß, ,
I have other Do 17Ps that were lost during Feb/Mar-42 as reported from the Gen.Qu. losses, however I wonder, did this unit become 3.(F)/Nachtaufkl.St.? The 'K7' code would seem to indicate this. Last edited by thenelm; 13th December 2009 at 21:28. Reason: Added info. |

Re: Need pilots full names
Okay, My understanding of the date was wrong. Khazanov jumps some time in his days of describing things. The 08Mar42 is the correct date and the report of the original claim report it was listed as a JU-88 which is what appears on the Kovachevich's score. Khazanov must have connected it in his research.

Good job..........you found Ritter. I never thought to look under 3.(F)/Nacht (K7+-L) (FpN L 31545) because there is no genealogical connection between it and 3.(F)/22 (4N+-L) (FpN L 13001). The only thing they shared in common was the airfield at Dno. They both existed separately at the same time and I know of no cases where they shared aircraft or air crew. I guess it should have rung a bell when you quite clearly said it was a night flight because 3.(F)/22 almost always flew VFR, whereas the crews from 3.(F)/Nacht where specially trained for IFR missions. They were two entirely different units. L. |
