Thanks Stig;

Just did not check that book when wrote the comment above, sorry. Just found it strange it was not included. Apologies to Brian and others.

Thank you very much Stig.
Thank you very much Ed.
I request excuses to You by my poor language.
I have not had occasion to find that book “Air for War Yugoslavia, Greece and Crete”.
In any case I look for a very concrete information.
I am going to try to explain it best the possible thing.
.- Name, Last names, of the pilots, soldiers, died in Krumovo-Plovdiv, during the stay of the Luftwaffe in Bulgaria.
Excuses again, I am inexperienced.
Greetings

Jon

Hi, I have possible 30% on one Ju 88 for that other date, no casualties mentioned, they could lurk somewhere or misdated. Anyway are you shure there were injuries?

Hi, please I would like confirmation/correction for these 2 points:

• 1./KG51 lost 2 Ju88 on that fateful day. Therefore, according to the Flugbuch of one of the lost airmen: Fw.Weigel Walter, Bm – one of the bomber (his Ju88) was coded 9K+DH, not 9K+GH : is a mistake ? An error?
• Some RAF pilots claimed these Luftwaffe bombers : Hurricane pilot Sgt George Genders, Flg Off E.J. Woods, Flg Off David Moir and Flg Off Ping Newton : what was their unit ?

Thank you
Phil.

8184 Ju 88 (A-5) 9K+GH I/KG 51 (Luftflotte 4)
OPS (F) missing (100%) unk location 03.05.1941 (F Lt. Rudolf Ortner, BF Uffz. Werner Mannert, BS Uffz. Johann Grabner and BM Fw. Walter Weigel missing)

I suppose this be "9K+DH" then. Errors like these are known, but who´s error?
We need third referance to be shure, or if there is W.Nr./code availble (I think less than a week or ten days before, to be fairly shure). I added sub-versions on both, as losses do not state these. The other was ...
