Information concerning the loss of Feldwebel August Stigler - killed 22.10.1940

Hi,

Have done some preliminary research before coming to the experts.

It seemed he was part of a Ju 88 crew on bombing mission to London but crashed on take off.

He was also the brother of Franz Stigler - famous for not shooting down a damaged B-17.

Please can someone confirm his unit and other crew members and mission?

Many thanks

Rick
