P.17,it's a Marauder(14 Sq RAF)?
P.143,a Lancaster (1656 Conversion RAF)? It's not really what I'm looking for. michel |

Hello,
Page 143 of 465 pdf. Page 17 of 535 pdf. Col |
Re: Lost of Mosquitos in Norway:1945
Michel, what you want re Q is on the actual page numbers 1 and 127. Both reports are the same except there is one report for each crew member.
Ignore Pages 17 and 143. Peter |

11 January 1945: claim by Lt Hans Vollet of 16/JG 5 for a Mosquito, west of Lister.
7 March 1945:Mid-air collision between two Mosquitos. 12 March 1945: one Mosquito and one Mustang claimed by JG 5. The Mosquito may have been claimed by Fw Adolf Lenz of 13/JG 5. Sources: E Mombeek: Eismeerjäger, volume 4 and H Sperrbund: Westküste, Slaget om Norge oktober 1944-maj 1945 |

Thank's
12/03/45 I assume and I deduce that the mustang (19°Sq) is one of the two claimed by Heinz Kappler. michel |
