Re: Me 410 or FW 190? Carnage over Oder - again
 

Raimo,

I did not ment to offend. You or Mr. Schlossstein. I fully agree that som memories have to undergo croschecking with other sources, but I also did not insisted on the IIIrd Gruppe while speaking and communicating with Mr. Schlossstein.
We all, I suppose, much appreciate that he is of will to share his memories with us after such a long time. Just felt, that this board is about information that may/can to be corrected.
May we have chances to meet veterans of all air forces for as long as time permits.
regards

Peter

Me 410 or Fw 190? Carnage over Oder - again
 

Hi guys

Interesting discussion and although I like Peter beleive that the unit in question was III./JG 54 it certainly was the tactful and more importantly respectful thing to do to not argue with Mr Schlosstein over the issue. One must remember that we are dealing with events that occurred over 67 years ago in a very stressful environment and that the unit existed as part of JG 54 for only about a month and a half (not to mention the use of the tactical insignia normally associated with a IV. Gruppe). Many thanks to Raimo for the videos and his information some of which I have used in compiling a thumbnail biography of this pilot. Any comments or corrections will be very welcome.
