(at the end of the link in english).

Dimitris called me and spoke about the excellent condition of the plane.
Unfortunately there is no possibility to make out the Werk-Nr. or the code letters, they are not visible any more.

They found some para helmets inside, some boots, the mashine gun is there (i think a MG 15 7,92), the radio transmitter as well. No skeletons.

I`m asking,

Who knows anything about a touch down of a Ju 52 with paras on the sea near the island of Kea ?

Could that have been occured in spring 1941 or during the attack against Leros 1943 ? I don`t have any info of a loss near there at all.

Is there anything else on the plane that could help in order to identify it ?

Where exactly were the plates with the werk number? They found one on the front of the co-pilot seat. Were they engraved or overpainted?
