Nitzsche's claims:

24.12.41 2 x Beaufighters
23.03.42 P-40
22.05.43 P-38
28.05.43 B-24

On page 289 of Prien, et al., "Messerschmitt Bf 109 im Einsatz bei der II./Jagdgeschwader 27" there is a group photo in which one of the pilots is tentatively identified as Hans Nitzsche with a question mark after the name.
