KG26 august 1944
Hello,
On its site, Nick Beale (I cannot apparently contact it by e-mail) speaks about the losses of 19 August 1944 : " Apart from the Do 217, known Luftwaffe bomber casualties for the day were 5 men of I./KG 26 killed while from II./KG 26 there were 9 dead, 2 wounded, 1 wounded and taken prisoner. This would be equivalent to four crews (plus one passenger) although both Gruppen were equipped the Ju 88 so it seems likely that VOF-1's aircraft recognition was at fault on this occasion." Does one know which plane were lost according to the German sources? Ju88 or He111 ? "One passenger" : is it possible that it is a woman? "known Luftwaffe bomber casualties" : which are these known causes? Thanks in advance. CMH |
