Brought down while attacking Convoy UGS 37 off Cap Bengut (Algerian coast).
Have emailed you an excerpt from a book with regards to the operation that day. He is listed in the DRK Vermisstenbildliste but his entry has no photo. Same for Wallner. And the Soldbuch has the signature of Hans Wittig (DKiG).

Matti & Hucks
Many thanks indeed for your help, it really is appreciated. As Hucks already knows, this is the crew I was looking for, and in particular the Beobachter: 1944-04-11, 7./KG 77, Ju 88 A-17, 801410, 3Z+FR, Unbekannt. Bruch 100 %. Flugzeugführer (Staffelkapitän) Hptm Wittig, Hans, vermißt Kampfbeobachter Uffz Wiebke, Friedhelm, vermißt Bordfunker Uffz Graf, Wilhelm, vermißt Bordschütze Fw Wallner, Georg, vermißt I should now be able to put a nice research piece together surrounding the career of Friedheim Wiebke. Thanks again. Richard. |
