Dear all

have some trouble in finding correct information about the loss of a recco Ju 88D-1 of either 1.(F) 123 (source Lw-Bulletin) or 1.(F) 121 (source crashlist Airwar Studygroup Holland).
Would like to know more about the correct unit, the crew composition and ditto fate and - if possible - the reason for their loss which occurred off the coastal area of Schouwen Island on 15 November 1943

Hi, guys.

Have been off the broadband for a while... so I missed this one.

Here is the loss record anyhow:

As a comment, there are no registered losses by GenQu6Abt for 1.(F)/123 between September 9th and November 26th 1943.

Regards,
Andreas
