Hauptmann Franz Ibold
Hello Laurent
2 February 1943: Ju 88 A-4 (W.Nr. 141 049) of III./KG 54 flown by Hauptmann Franz Ibold (F), Oberfeldwebel Karl Mash (B), Oberfeldwebel Karl Braunhoff (Bf) and Feldwebel Heinz Krüger (Bm), all killed, fighter fire, Pl.Qu. 0817/13 Ost, 100% Please note that I might have interpreted the surname of the Beobachter and perhaps even others wrongly as the source is difficult to read. Horrido! Leo

Re: Loss of Hptm Ibold, Kdr II/KG 54, on 2 February 1943
As far as I know these are the correct names: Mach, Karl & Braunnhoff, Karl. Braunnhoff was a member of 9./KG54.
The plane's tactical code was B3+AD. It's mission was to escort the convoy "Paselli" nord of the Gulf of Tunis. The plane was attacked by a Lightning and went down burning. It exploded on impact with the see. Hope this helps. Regards, Rudi. Last edited by RudiS; 23rd February 2010 at 20:48. Reason: typo
