Junkers Ju 88 Boka bay (Montenegro)
Hello all
I am trying to help fellow divers to find out which aircraft they found in Montenegro. By now I haven't found any records of this case only from Shores book on 18. November 1943. Ar 196A-3 WN.r 100430 Tivat Harbour claimed by Cpt.P.H.Hugo (on search for missing Ju 88 lost W "Budwar" (Budva)). Luftwaffe loss report for those dates have nothing or I missed it. Do you have any idea https://www.divemontenegro.com/dive-...ns/junkers-88/ also on their page you can see Spitfire for 08.03.1944. (they mixed dates and pilots) as always thanks in advance Antun |
