Re: Crew Me 110 ?
Hi Jef,
3. Jagddivision reported one aircraft missing and seven destroyed during Nachtschlacht missions against the Allied bridgehead across the Rhine at Wesel on the night of 26-27 March 1945. The only definite Bf110 losses have information for are: Bf110G-4 G9+KC - Stab II./NJG1 - Lt. Werner Barthel - crashed near Lintorf at 22.30 hrs, shot down by a Mosquito prob. Bf110 - IV./NJG1 - Lt. Ludwig Kraut - initially reported missing (ULTRA in HW 5/687, CX/MSS/R.509/C/9): "Report signed NABBE 1, Adjutant, to GENRO 3 ((IIB)) dated 27/3:- Missing Report No. 28 26-27/3. Lt. Ludwig KRAUT, pilot NIBON ((10./NJG)) 1 26-27/3; Uffz. Hans DODEN, a/c W/T operator NIBON ((10./NJG)) 1 26-27/3; ?? Eberhardt HEINRICH, air gunner ((10./NJG)) 1 26-27/3" I have no information on a crash site, but air gunner Flgr. Heinrich Eberhardt (born 23/3/1925) is buried in Block CR, Reihe 10, Grab 241, at the Ysselsteyn Kriegsgräberstätte. Cheers Rod |

Re: Crew Me 110 ?
Hi Jef,
it's probably pertinent to add that F/L Stewart RNZAF and F/O Brumby RNZAF in 488 Squadron Mosquito NT263 claimed a Me110 destroyed at 00.05 hrs on 27 March, "8 miles N.W. of Bocholt" (at map grid ref "A.1373" = 51 56 55 N, 06 28 19 E). |

Re: Crew Me 110 ?
Thank you so much guys,
Since more than 30 years I have these relics from a Dutch salvage group. And I didn't even know the name of the crew. With a lot of respect I will adjust the information on the display. kind regards, Jef |
