Claims of 2nd Lt. Robert F. Reid (317th FS/325th FG) on 19 January, 1945
Gentlemen,
Anyone knows the exact times and areas of Robert Reid's (317th FS/325th FG) three claims on 19 January, 1945? Is it correct, that officially only the first two were credited to him? Thank you, |

Csaba,
Ju-52 at 1015, SE of Vienna, Me-109 at 1030, SE of Vienna. While flying a P-51, squadron code 10. Source: combat reports in the US National Archives. There are only the two reports; I would have to dig up the Narrative Mission Report to check on other claims, which were either not put forward, or denied in their entireity. Enjoy! Frank. |

Frank,
Thank you. His third claim was also a Messer but it seems, it was denied. The Narrative Report would help a lot to clarify the circumstances of that third claim. Incidentally, times were reported at 15th AAF always as CET or GMT also? |

Csaba,
I am not sure about the use of time zones in the 15th AF. In my review of MTO MACRs, I have found them to 1) not indicate a time zone (which I take to mean "local") 2) use the term "Local" or "LT" 3) use the term "GMT" 4) use the term "A" or "B" Don't know if that helps. Enjoy! Frank. |
All times are GMT +2. The time now is 19:57. |
