Infos needed concerning a Luftwaffe bomber crash...

[loiclemarchand]

Hello everybody,
A friend send to me a photograph from a Luftwaffe bomber crashed at Hondouville in Normandy. He tell me that all the 4 members crew died. Apparently, this crash happened during the night but unfortunately I have no date concerning this.
If anybody can help me to identify this aircraft and more...like the crew...but I know that it is difficult with only one photograph. I think that it is a Ju-88 but I'm really don't sure.

Please, look the attached file. I have also two others pictures.

Thank you
Cheers
Loïc

Sir,

I have two "+AP" Ju 88s listed. Both come from Crashed Enemy Aircraft reports (CEA). The first doesn't fit as the notes say, unlike your photo, its "AP" was outlined in green and it was in Holland. The second is a stretch, but possible:

Ju 88 A-4, WNr. 39832, 3E+AP, 6./II./KG 6, 44/12/11, Rheims RxR yard, France. (CEA260).

Best regards,

Steve Sheflin

There's another(?) 3E+AP of 6/KG6, which is the one shot down by Keith Hampshire on the night of 24/25 March 1944 over Walberton, Sussex.
