Thanks on the 3 may 45 loss to 130 sqn

Here is what the book has on the 15 may 43 loss of Wekusta 51:
"Flying on that course northwest of Ireland, Ju 88D-1, 4T+CH (W.Nr 430415) did not return from the routine mission on the 15th. Ofw Willi Braunicke, Wd Insp Paul Schreiner, Uffz Otto Volker and Ogefr Fritz Muller were posted missing, presumably off Ireland. No FC claims in this area this day i don't know about CC.
