Queries on three NJ losses III./KG3, IV./NJG1 and 1./JG300 8-9 October 1943
Dear all,
I have queries on three Nachtjagd losses sustained during the 8-9 October 1943 Hannover/Bremen raid: -a Ju88 A-4 Beleuchter of III./KG3 was destroyed by ‘friendly’ flak and crashed at Heeßen/Bad Eilsen near Bückeburg, without injury to the crew. What was the W.Nr. of this a/c? -an aircraft, reportedly a He219 A-1 (W.Nr. 2309 coded G9+AE) of Stab IV./NJG1 crashed at Cloppenburg following air combat with the loss of BF Ofw. Rudolf Müller. Is it correct that this was a He219? Or an Me210? a Bf109 G-6 of 1./JG300 was assessed as 60% damaged in combat with a Halifax -what was the a/c's W.Nr. and where did it crash? Cheers and thanks for any info, Theo

Thanks for comfirming this one René!
(In Balss 1st ed. this was correctly listed as an Me210; in his revised 2nd ed it was listed as a He219, hence my confusion on this loss). Cheers, Theo

The Ju 88A-4 was WNr. 2559 with 100% damage, no further details listed.
I have no matching Bf 109 loss for your data.

Cheers and thanks for your helpful replies Matti and Gerhard!
A final query perhaps on 8-9 October 1943: What was the W.Nr. of a Bf110 G-4 of 1./NJG3 that was shot down NW of Essen/Oldenburg on this night? Best regards, Theo
