    Luftwaffe recon units

    I am trying to figure out what Luftwaffe Recon unit an old friend of mine (now passed) might have belonged to..

    He was a crewchief on photographic recon aircraft.

    I saw his flugbuch years and years ago..never made a note of his unit (dumb!)

    But I do recall that the aircraft types he flew were JU88, JU188, JU288 and JU388.

    Does anyone know what units may have used all these types??

    There cant be too many of these units as it seems there were less than 50 JU388s produced and an even smaller number of JU288s were used.

    Any clues guys..??

    Best, John

          John,

          You may also want to look for the book "Aufklarer" Luftwaffe Reconnaissance Aircraft & Units 1935-45 by Hikoki Publications.

          It might be out of print but examples due frequently crop up on Amazon.

          Regards

          Jeremy
